Tuscany Cooking School

The Tuscany region of Italy is one of the most beautiful and beloved destinations in the world. Stunning scenery, fine wine and delicious food are just a few reasons tourists flock to this location. If you want to make the most of your time in this Italian region, consider a Tuscany cooking school. There are professional schools for aspiring chefs as well as public schools for tourists and locals who may not want to work in the food service industry but who do want to learn the secrets of preparing authentic Tuscan cuisine.


If you are unfamiliar with the region but know you want to attend school there, doing some Internet research can be very helpful. Most all cooking schools worth attending have websites where you can learn more about their programs. While you might think these sites would be in Italian, many of them offer English sites also because so many travelers from North America come to Tuscany for vacation and/or culinary education. Whether you are an amateur or want to work as a pro, there are schools to fit your needs.

One Tuscany school is called Toscana Saporita. This small yet distinguished school offers English speaking classes and daily guided tours in English. The owners of this school are cousins who are experienced cooks and cookbook authors. You may have seen Toscana Saporita featured in a variety of magazines and papers including Bon Appetit and USA Today just to name a couple. The atmosphere at this school is one of a warm and welcoming family, which many students appreciate and enjoy. By the time you leave this school you will feel like you are saying goodbye to people you've known forever.

Another Tuscany cooking school popular with vacationers is called Organic Tuscany. As its name specifies this school specializes in organic cuisine. Chefs from the region will guide small groups through the preparation of organic Tuscan dishes made with fresh local ingredients. There are vegetarian courses as well as courses that feature meat. Whether you are planning to become a chef or just want to learn some Italian cooking skills on vacation, you will adore the fine wine, vegetables, fruits, grains, nuts and other organically produced ingredients used to prepare meals in this region.
