Because Italian cooking, whatever the season, never fails to bring inspiration to the serious cook. Using seasonal produce and simple (yet essential!) tips, our chef will help you to recreate dishes that will transport you from a grey English winter's evening to a golden Italian one.

A sample menu could include:

• A selection of antipasti

• Pumpkin ravioli with sage butter

• Sauteed Italian Winter greens with borlotti beans

• Panna cotta with poached figs and red wine

All classes include tastings throughout and supper. You are welcome to bring your own wine, beer or soft drinks. You will also be able to take something of home of what you have cooked. All recipes cooked by you or demonstrated will be sent on to you by email following the class.
