What To Expect

Master the flavors of home made pasta Sardinian cuisine—like al dente gnochetti Sardi doused in flavory sauce and bruschetta topped with bright, sun-ripened tomatoes—during this hands-on pasta cooking class you will learn how to prepare fresh pasta and to cook it the Sardinian way, while learning also other side food tips for a good meal! .
Make your way a few minutes out of town to a farmhouse in the countryside, where you're welcomed in by your friendly hosts and led into the kitchen. Immerse yourself in the Sardinian life style as you're introduced to gourmet products and locally grown ingredients!

Surely you happened to go to friends' house and cook together ... here's, this is what we will do: we will prepare "fresh pasta", I will teach you how to make a good sauce with simple ingredients; during our work will be offered a small aperitif with local cool cuts and cheeses; I will tell you some curiosity about the gastronomic specialties of Sardinia and, finally, you can taste the result of your work accompanied by a good glass of wine of our production: it is open to all friends and you could sit at the table with unknown people but you'll feel like at home.

We had a wonderful time. Irene and her son had prepared everything beautifully. The farm has a lovely atmosphere and is very cosy; in the evening, everything is lit up. We made six types of pasta, two of which were cooked at the end. We were also given lots of local delicacies to try. Irene explained everything very patiently. Afterwards, we were given the recipes. We had a lot of fun and learned so much. Highly recommended.

AminaSamira_H, Sep 2025

It was really nice and so much fun! Irene was so friendly and explained everything so well. Totally enjoyed it and the Pasta was amazing.

Must do experience in Alghero

LETTY_C, Aug 2025

We had the best time. The farm is gorgeous, the cooking class was perfectly done and the food was delicious. The class size was perfect with only 10 people who we enjoyed meeting, coming and eating with.

Amazing experience for my...

Amanda_K, Aug 2025

Amazing experience for my family. The location is magical, the hosts were extremely friendly and warm and pasta making was so much fun. This was the highlight of our trip to Sardinia and I would highly recommend it!

Unforgettable cooking experience

Carmel_F, Jul 2025

What an amazing evening and unforgettable experience with Irene and Gabriel from the pasta making to the superior food served included in the tour. Our hosts then cooked and served our home made raviolii and tagliatelle delicious. Do not miss this cooking adventure if you visit Sardegna.

Skip — better options

Megan_M, Jul 2024

Food was good but it felt like our instructor was rushed and made us feel like we were bothering her rather than being open to teaching us. Also, she said she would send us recipes but never did. I took a different cooking class I found on Airbnb near Telti and it was SO MUCH better and the instructor was significantly kinder and shared more on the history of pasta.

Just a wonderful experience!

Mark_K, Jun 2024

This was a fantastic experience. Irene was a great teacher for the group (13 people) and we learnt some of the secrets of good pasta. It was hands on which really helped the learning. We then had a full meal with pasta, wine etc. For us, it was a real highlight of our 7 week trip to Italy.

Amazing Sardinian Cooking Class

Adriana_M, Jun 2024

This was a fabulous Sardinian countryside home cooking class experience. Irene and her son Gabriele were incredibly welcoming. We learned how to make various types of pasta and received fantastic tips and tricks. After the pasta-making session, we relaxed with other travelers, enjoyed local wine, and savored delicious nibbles. The meal began with ravioli, followed by the tagliatelle we had prepared earlier, and finished with dessert. It was such a fun night. We highly recommend adding this experience to your itinerary.

Best evening of our trip

Ariane_C, Jun 2024

Such an amazing night ! The place id beautiful. Irene is a really good teacher. We learn at least 6 pasta :)

Such a special evening....

Shona_M, May 2024

Such a special evening. Great value and fantastic experience. Food was very good. We cycled from alghero and back so if you don’t have a car it is possible to get there and back without a car but you need to be careful on the roads. Would highly recommend this experience.

Amazing cooking class

Chiara_B, May 2024

The cooking class was amazing. Irene was a fabulous and showed us all the different pasta techniques and helped us along the way when we got stuck. Would highly highly recommend doing this cooking class.

An incredible and learning experience.

Steven_F, Oct 2023

Irena was wonderful-an excellent host, teacher and cook. Pasta making was hands-on and entertaining at the same time. Our meal, wine, and storytelling after the pasta class topped off an incredible experience.

Lovely pasta making class

Jessica_S, Sep 2023

GregoryS_G, Jul 2022

Irene was amazing. Fantastic experience. We really enjoyed our afternoon. Would definitely recommend.

Wonderful family experience! You'll never want store-bought pasta again!

Arleen_A, Jul 2022

Irene was a wonderful host and instructor! Her beautiful house outside Alghero was the perfect setting for cooking and eating - such a warm family, and friendly dogs. We made 3-4 types of pastas in all. Irene's instructions were simple and fun, and she patiently answered lots of questions on the sauces, ingredients and general cooking. I'll always remember this beautiful experience whenever "I make" pasta. Thanks Irene and family for hosting us! Also Cheers to our 3 cooking companion new friends!

Lovely day for the whole family

Jennifer_S, Jun 2022

Fantastic day with wonderful hosts! We learned all the magic of pasta making and enjoyed a wonderful lunch by the pool. The food was fantastic!

Disappointing.

Colette_W, Jun 2022

This is not a cooking experience. It is a pasta making course. While we enjoyed learning how to make and roll pasta we did not learn, about or how to cook the pasta or how to make any sauces to accompany the pastas. (The secrets of traditional Sardinian home cooking remain a mystery unfortunately). We prepared 4 types of pasta and only sampled 2. The outline of the course specified we would use fresh produce, meat, fish and olive oil, we did not use meat, fish or olive oil. It also outlined that we would prepare a four course meal, beyond making pasta (not cooking) we did not prepare any of our meal. For 100 euro per person we did not think it was good value and we're disappointed. The family running the course were welcoming.

Response from Host, Jun 2022

I am sorry we did not meet your expectation. We will work harder to have the experience in line with what described and offered. Consider that 30% of the price goes to Tripadvisor so i believe the price is more than fair for what is offered and the time dedicated to you. regards

Highly recommended ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

Chris_F, Jun 2022

We both had a wonderful time learning how to make pasta. Irene met us with a warm welcome and guided us through the classic Italian craft in her beautifully rustic countryside home.

A must!

David_D, May 2022

Highly recommended! Irene and Gabriele are very welcoming and patient with first timers :). A great experience ending with a spectacular lunch and home grown wine!

Best genuine Sardinian experience!

AMY_H, Apr 2022

This was an incredible experience all around! Irene welcomed us into her lovely and quaint house in the Sardinian countryside. She showed all of us how to make incredible homemade pasta in different shapes with various tools. Our pasta was then prepared for us into some of the best dishes I have ever eaten, along with anti pasta plate, bread, dessert, coffee and liquor. We had lovely company with a family from Holland working alongside us. The whole experience was perfectly lovely. The hostess is a joy. Do not miss out on this opportunity!!

Wonderful experience!

Patrycja_P, Apr 2022

It was wonderful experience. We spent 3 hours in real Italian kitchen at farmhouse. Prepared meals were delicious. Additionally, we were provided in appetizers, spritz and a lot of wine :) Totally reccomemended!!!

Farmhouse cooking class just outside Alghero

Michelle_M, Oct 2021

Irene was a gracious, lovely host. The class was very well-organized + included good little tips/tricks for cooking, a gourmet meal to finish + take-home recipes. We made ravioli, gnocchetti, tagliatelle, and pastella. And she treated us to homemade seadas, which are a traditional Sard dessert - they were heavenly!! 6 people max - we loved our cooking mates too. Highly recommend!

The meal was delicious...

Joseph_G, Sep 2021

Maureen_V, Jul 2021
