Umbria cooks Puglia in Tuscany

August 27th, 2007

Some of the classGraeme and I meet Clooney

Are you confused yet? Tomorrow I am going to Tuscany to teach cooking to a group of travelers. They will learn to make pasta, of course, and then they will learn to make a Pugliese dish with it that has become popular all over Italy. That would be because it is really good.

Because the pasta lesson takes some real time, the other courses will be quicker recipes. My friend, Graeme, will work with me so he can learn how to teach. He already knows how to cook, as many Australian men cook, really, really well. I’m hoping for some really good photos for my website, because usually I am way too busy to be photographing lessons. You have to watch these learners to see when they’re having a problem!
Eating what they made

If there’s any sentiment for it, I can post the recipes we learn here. They aren’t my recipes, like the rest of the recipes here, but traditional foods made the traditional way. What about it?

    I second Barbara’s comment - absolutely would love to see the recipes, and most definitely the photos, too!

    Yes, yes! As I was reading I was impatiently shifting in my chair, thinking, “Recipe! Recipe!” And yes, as Barbara says, pictures, as well. Let me know if you have things planned for the fall of 2008, when I plan to be there on sabbatical.

    You will have to wait for photos. It was really busy but the students took photos. I hope to get them via email when they get back.

    Il capo said he learned a lot. Now I’m waiting for him to teach me to make Brisket Bone with Mussels, Brisket Bone with a Lemon and Cream Sauce, and a Brisket Bone Tart with Goats Cheese.

    Dermott! Cucciolo! Come stai?

    So he’s il capo and not il padrone, eh? I think he probably didn’t learn more than that he could do this too.
