The Truffle hunt

Your experience begins in the beautiful woods of Umbria. You will walk alongside a professional local hunter and their highly trained, passionate dogs. Watch the incredible connection between man and dog as they sniff out the precious black truffles hidden beneath the earth.

The hands-on cooking class

After the hunt, we move into the kitchen. Guided by our experienced instructors, you will learn how to clean your freshly found truffles and turn them into incredible traditional dishes. This is a 3-hour, fully interactive class where you will roll up your sleeves and discover the balance of modern pairings rooted in original Italian essence. Visit the page of our cooking classes

The feast

To reward your hard work, you will sit down to enjoy a spectacular three-course lunch .Every dish will be perfectly accompanied by selected local wines, sharing the true joy of Italian hospitality.

I just had the best cooking class experience ever. Chef Laura and asst Nicola from Sagraincasa were so professional and knowledgeable about food. They made the whole cooking experience so much fun. We made an appetizer, pasta and dessert. I wish I could go everyday and learn more Italian dishes. I highly recommend their cooking classes.
