Wednesday / il mercoledì – The All-Senses Cooking Lesson

Leonardo felt that the average person looks without seeing, listens without hearing, touches without feeling, eats without tasting …

A good morning to sleep in, write in your journal, or take a hike in nature. Perhaps you have an interest in playing a round of golf, horseback riding, or doing some spa treatments - you choose!

In the afternoon, we take a short drive to Fattoria Villa Maionchi, famous for their red and white wines and extra virgin olive oil.

We return home for a hands-on, nose-alert cooking lesson. In the spirit of Leonardo da Vinci, we learn to cook as an artist – using all senses of seeing, hearing, feeling, tasting and smelling, plus the sixth sense of intuitive instinct. Great fun is had by all as we use an artist's palette of sauces and herbs, and chop and stir like the great chefs of Florence!
