Summer 2024 Food & Wine Workshop

August 25-September 1, 2024

 

Summer's workshop is devoted to tomatoes and the sea. Jarred at their peak freshness, good tomatoes are the soul of a traditional Southern Italian ragù. We'll learn the traditional processes of preserving tomatoes and the secrets of the best tomato sauces.

​

The most special visits of the summer workshop will be to Cetara on the Amalfi Coast and a Pisciotta to learn about anchovy fishing and preserving in the traditional methods. We'll also see how colatura, a condiment similar to Roman garum, is made in traditional barrels.

​

To beat the heat we'll head to the mountains to visit the cantina of Azienda Agricola Boccella for a wine tasting and a homemade lunch with the winemakers themselves. 

​

This workshop includes a free day to relax at Borgo La Pietraia, or an optional visit to Beach Club 93.
