Amateur
Amateur courses are designed to teach students the methods of Italian cooking and help students to uncover the secrets of Italian cuisine. Subjects concern cooking tradition in Italy in general with particular focus on bolognese and regional cuisine. They’re arranged by courses (starters, pasta, main courses, side dishes and dessert) or by theme (pasta, meat, vegetables, wines). Each meeting lasts three hours. During the half an hour after the end of the lesson you can eat the food you prepared during the course. Sometimes it is possible to have lunch or dinner with the chef and other participants for more than one hour, but it depends on the availability of the participants and the cooking experts.
Lesson timetable:
09:30am - 12:30pm
03:30pm - 06:30pm
07:00pm - 10:00pm
You can choose five days a week or four or three days a week. Two other meetings are devoted to ways of choosing and buying ingredients with a visit to the local market and to the kitchens of some prestigious restaurants. This course is organized in 5 levels:
1. Beginners’ course: for those with no experience in cooking at all
2. Basic course: for those who can cook, but have no experience in Italian cooking
3. Italian, Bolognese and Regional Cooking course: for those already familiar with Italian cuisine and who have experience in cooking Italian dishes
4. In-depth course: for those already competent in Italian cooking and who already know several different recipes
