🍕 A Taste of Italy: From Philadelphia to Our Mediterranean Cooking Classes

Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting a lovely family from Philadelphia who joined one of our Mediterranean Cooking Classes. They were especially excited about learning how to make authentic Italian pizza during our Pizza Cooking Class and couldn’t wait to master the secrets of a good tiramisu.

They were also fascinated by our homemade sourdough starter – which we use in all our Italian Cooking Classes – and we were happy to gift them a portion to take home. They plan to continue their culinary journey with our Online Mediterranean Cooking Classes once back in the U.S.

🫒 Organic Olive Oil – What’s the Difference?

During a tasting session, the family was curious about the different types of olive oils. They tried our Organic Olive Oil, and we explained the difference between cold-pressed olive oil, hot-pressed olive oil, and cold-pressed or hot-pressed olive oil in general.

We focused especially on Coratina olive oil, rich in polyphenols, and they even bought a bottle of Italian extra virgin olive oil to take home. They also wanted to know how Italian olive oil compares with Greek or Spanish varieties. Our answer: it depends on the region, the variety of olive, the soil, and the production method – but Italian oils, especially organic cooking oil, are known for their richness and complexity.

🍝 When Time Is Short: Ready-Made Sauce and Pasta

Knowing they wouldn’t have much time to cook while traveling, we sent them off with a few jars of our delicious ready-made sauce – great for a quick yet flavorful dinner. They also picked up some Organic Rigati Pasta GRANORO, a perfect match for both classic and creative recipes.
