Dive into the heart of Veronese cuisine with an immersive culinary experience hosted at a local cooking studio just minutes from Bellamore. The Offsite Pasta & Risotto all’Amarone Cooking Class offers guests an authentic, hands-on opportunity to master two of the region’s most iconic dishes—fresh handmade pasta and the richly flavored risotto crafted with Valpolicella’s legendary Amarone wine.

Led by a professional Italian chef, the class begins with an introduction to traditional ingredients, preparation techniques, and the cultural history behind each recipe. Guests then roll up their sleeves to create fresh pasta from scratch, shaping classic forms while learning tips that can be recreated at home. Next, the chef guides participants through the step-by-step preparation of Risotto all’Amarone, known for its deep ruby color and velvety texture.

After the cooking session, participants gather around the communal table to enjoy the dishes they’ve created, paired with a selection of local wines chosen to complement the flavors. Warm, authentic, and deeply rooted in the culinary traditions of Verona and Valpolicella, this experience offers a delicious way to explore the region’s food culture.
