Porcini
Fragrant, earthy, and intensely flavorful, porcini mushrooms have been a beloved delicacy in Italian cuisine for centuries. In this masterclass, chef Mario Marini takes you deep into the forests of Borgotaro, the birthplace of this extraordinary mushroom. You’ll learn where and how to forage it, how to clean it without damaging its delicate texture, and how to prepare it in a variety of ways. Whether sautéed, fried, folded into a risotto, or served atop freshly rolled tagliatelle: the possibilities are endless. Which recipes will be featured? That remains a surprise for now. But one thing’s for sure: you won’t want to miss it.
Südtiroler küche
As the days grow colder, chef Thomas Ortler brings the warmth of South Tyrol into your kitchen. In this masterclass, he takes you back to his childhood in the mountain village of Vinschgau, where he learned to cook at his grandmother’s stove and discovered his love for local ingredients. The scent of stews, freshly baked bread, and wild Alpine herbs forms the soul of his cuisine. Alongside his grandmother’s traditional recipes, Thomas also reveals the Italian side of South Tyrol: from soft dumplings with mountain cheese to vitello with smoked trout and pumpkin gnocchi with Alpine cheese and speck. After years in renowned kitchens across Europe, Thomas returns to his roots, where simplicity, emotion, and flavor come together. This masterclass captures the spirit of winter in the Alps: the crisp mountain air outside, the aroma of melting butter and herbs inside, and the joy of gathering around a warm table after a day in the snow.
