pizza and pasta making classes at casa leana
Hi, I’m Alberto
I grew up in my family’s bakery and since I was a young boy, food and fermentation surround my life. I’m a specialist in preparing pizza and bread using natural sourdough, biological and local flour made with ancient techniques of growing and stone grinding.
I’m also aware how important it is to eat natural and vital food for the body and the mind so I use special tools to improve good frequency with the ingredients and water which I will be using during our class with special focus on vegan and vegetarian menú and fermented vegetables.
Cooking can be the most meditative part of our life and it happens three times a day…every day!
