Get away from the hustle and bustle of the Sassi di Matera and discover a true Italian farm.
Silvia, Greg and Agriturismo L'Assiolo invite you to your own personal cooking class set at a beautiful local organic olive and orange farm just outside of Matera in the Italian countryside.
First up, a quick tour of the farm so that you can really understand where the food we use in this part of the world comes from. Learn all about our 'liquid gold', extra virgin olive oil, and how we produce it with our very own trees. What’s more, you’ll get the chance to eat some fruit straight from a tree - just like a real Italian farmer!
Then, it’ll be straight into the kitchen where you’ll meet Silvia, the daughter of the family, who has had over 20 years of seeing her Mamma wow local and international guests with her traditional Matera, farmhouse cooking.
You’ll learn the authentic, original way to make fresh pasta, a typical pasta sauce and also two typical dishes from Matera. From secret techniques to our philosophy of simplicity, this special experience in the countryside of Southern Italy will whisk you away to a side of Italy that is truly authentic.
