Meet Corinna

Born and raised in Sardinia, Corinna is passionate about sharing the flavors, aromas, and culinary traditions of her island through immersive food experiences. Her cooking combines fresh Mediterranean seafood, seasonal local ingredients, and traditional Sardinian recipes passed down through generations. Corinna welcomes travelers into her home for a hands-on Italian cooking class and shared meal that celebrates authentic Sardinian food, culture, local ingredients, and the joy of dining together.

What to expect

Please note menu might vary. If there are particular dishes you are interested in trying, please include your request in the booking form.

Cooking experience: (2-8 guests) Join Corinna in her home in Arzachena, a peaceful residential town in Sardinia, for an authentic Sardinian cooking class and meal. During this immersive culinary experience, discover traditional Sardinian cuisine featuring handmade pasta, local meats, seasonal vegetables, fresh seafood, and regional specialties rarely found in restaurants.

Begin your experience with an aperitif accompanied by local cheeses and cured meats. In your hands-on Italian cooking class, learn to prepare traditional Sardinian dishes using simple techniques that highlight the natural flavors of fresh local ingredients. Choose from three menu options and cook two dishes from scratch, such as Sardinian gnocchi and a classic Italian dessert or an appetizer and main course. You will learn every step of the process, from making the dough to shaping and preparing the pasta by hand. Each pasta dish will be served with a different sauce prepared in advance. Along the way, Corinna will share family recipes, cooking tips, and culinary traditions passed down from her mother and grandmother. After cooking, sit down to enjoy the authentic meal you helped prepare, served on the veranda during the summer months and paired with carefully selected regional Sardinian wines from local wineries. To end your experience, enjoy homemade mirto, traditional Sardinian liqueur.

This private cooking class in Sardinia takes place in a local home and is perfect for travelers who want to enjoy an authentic Italian meal while learning to make fresh pasta from scratch.

Notes: Corinna can offer vegetarian, lactose-free and gluten-free meals on request, if informed in advance.

Languages spoken: English, Italian
