7 Tage Italienischer Kochurlaub mit Giuliano Hazan in Verona
Hands-on Cooking Holidays in Italy with Giuliano Hazan
Giuliano and Lael Hazan together with Marilisa Allegrini invite you to join them at their cooking school in Italy for a week of total immersion in Italian food, wine, and life. A limited number of students will participate in a week of intensive hands-on classes taught by Giuliano Hazan. We will make homemade pasta, risotto, meats, local fish, vegetables, and desserts. Each 5-hour class concludes with dinner in classic style composed of the several courses prepared during the class. Each class will also include presentations by Marilisa Allegrini on the major wine producing regions of Italy. The wines discussed, both from the Allegrini vineyards and other distinguished Italian producers, will accompany the meals.

Unterkunft
You will be spending six nights at the Renaissance Villa della Torre, where stupendous luxury rooms have been created in 2015. The entire structure revolves around the courtyard or Peristyle, the true "heart of the house". As in the "domus antiqua" or ancient Roman house, it welcomed a host of elite guests eager to experience the best of humanist leisure activities, such as poetry, music, classical literature, and the contemplation of nature.
Programm
Culinary excursions
We will visit a rice mill where rice for risotto continues to be processed the way it was in 1648. We shall travel to medieval Sirmione on the southern shore of Lake Garda to experience a seafood cookery that epitomizes the exquisite, light-handed traditions of the lake. The olive oil from the Veneto is perhaps Italy's most elegant and we will visit a frantoio where it is made. We will also spend a day outside the Veneto to witness the making of Parmigiano-Reggiano and to taste the rare culatello, an air-cured ham that is even more prized than prosciutto.
