FORGOTTEN FLAVOURS
How do we get back to that simpler, more authentic world of kitchen craft? ‘Forgotten Flavours’ aims to
do just that. Castiglion del Bosco’s commitment to the preservation of rural Tuscan’s architectural
heritage and landscape has been conveyed into the kitchen.
The idea is to try to transmit a ‘memory’s cuisine’, to lead you through an adventure designed to
uncover age-old tastes (sapori) and techniques (saperi). Imagine a form of culinary archaeology, aimed at
bringing to light the roots of Tuscan identity. However, it is also about rediscovering the pleasures of
conviviality, the unhurried rhythms of family traditions at the table.
Schedule:
Morning Class: 10.00 am - 12.00 pm
Afternoon Class: 4.00 pm - 6.00 pm
– The Chef begins by taking participants to the orto, our kitchen garden, to select fresh ingredients.
– The Chef will present and explain to you the menu, based on the season.
– You will begin preparing your meal and learn how to store it until it is ready to be served.
– You will learn how easy it is to prepare your meal, thanks to grandmother’s secrets.
– The class will end with a delicious meal that you have prepared with your own hands.
At the end of the meal you will receive the recipes of the meal you have prepared.

Price per person: € 200,00.
Number of participants: 1 to 6.

or market gardener, will help you to discover the secrets of the soil, how best to sow and how and when
