astoria cooking 4 culinary holidays in italy

We give a fabulous opportunity to learn abruzzese cooking visiting medieval villages.

Abruzzo’s culture had few outside influences to corrupt its uniqueness. Both the agricultural and coastal aspects of this region have contributed to Abruzzo’s authentic cuisine. Renowned for its wines with their fullness of body, its food for its boldness of flavor, and its sweetness, the Abruzzi Region ranks among Italy’s best. Step back in time and discover truly traditional, non-commercialized Italian cooking in the foothills of the Apennine Mountains. Surrounded by hills and valleys as rugged and peaceful as the people, you will learn to cook in the timeless tradition deeply embedded in the hearts of local artisans. While your home this week will be the hilltop, medieval villages.
