THE COOKING
COURSE
Culinary Calabria: Cookery school “Arte Culinaria”
If you enjoy and have fun cooking then try cooking under the instruction of a professional cook in the home of a unique culture of eating – Italy!
In our cookery school “Arte Culinaria” in the heart of Calabria we offer all the ingredients for an excursion into the world of culinary pleasures.
This special type of school invites hobby cooks as well as beginners to refine their cooking skills and enjoy the creatively served results in a nice atmosphere.
In the cookery school we want to let you in on some of the professional cooks’ tips and tricks in a lovely atmosphere. Fun is never lacking here. We cater to your wishes on all cookery courses. For every delicious recipe you will receive all the information in a paper format as well.
You will cook together with our head chef, who introduces you to the small and large secrets of the art of cookery.
You can participate in the cookery courses without any knowledge of Italian. A delicious 4-course meal at the flick of a wrist, a surprise meal of homemade minestrone or crazy pasta dishes for the family – after a cookery course at the “Arte Culinaria” cookery school it should not be a problem.
Italian Cuisine
In hardly any other European country is the culture
of food as closely linked to the philosophy of life
as in Italy. Mediterranean cooking is a symbol of Latin
culture. In fact Italian cooking forms the basis for
all other Western styles of cooking. Its founders, the
ancient Romans, took a part of their culinary inspiration
from Asia and Greece. At the same time they made the
most of the ingredients and supplies from their own
country. Thanks to this combination it was left up to
Italy to teach France and other western cultures about
good food. Even the Larousse Gastronomique, the Bible
of French cooking, admits "that Italian cooking must
be seen as the true source of all styles of cooking
for all Western European countries."
The "poor people's cooking" of Southern Italy has created
a blessing out of poverty and has convinced us of its
greatness through the wonderful and fresh taste that
the ingredients themselves possess. In comparison to
French cooking it is, in this sense, much more solid
and simple food.
