Cookery course

I am looking for a week long (english speaking) cookery course in Italy - no preference as to location but want a very hands-on focused course.

Anyone heard of any good ones/done one they can recommend?

      Ciao

      What's important to you in your cookery course? What part of Italy? What is your price range? Are you looking for cooking classes only or for a package of cooking classes + accommodation and perhaps + excursions? What time of year? Any particular kind of cuisine or ingredients you want to work with?

      If you can tell us more about what you're looking for, I can make suggestions. There are hundreds of cookery courses in Italy.

        Pamela Sheldon Johns teaches from her Agriturismo in Tuscany

        She's a best selling cookbook author and her courses are fantastic.

        Judy Witt runs day and week long cooking courses from a small town just south of Florence:

        Both are very hands on, and both Judy and Pamela are fantastic fun people. I can recommend both 100%.
