MasterSteak: Tuscan Steak Cooking Class with Unlimited Wine

Florentine Steak Cooking Class with Local Chef in Florence

Learn to cook a traditional Florentine steak and a three-course Tuscan meal in a small group setting, guided by a local chef in central Florence. Suitable for food lovers and home cooks.

Description

Meet your Florentine chef in the historic center of Florence, born and raised in the Sant’Ambrogio neighborhood, known as the city’s food district. Morning tours (except Sundays and holidays) start with a visit to Sant’Ambrogio Market, one of Florence’s oldest markets, where you will explore fresh seasonal produce and local specialties.

Back in the kitchen, the chef will guide you step-by-step to cook a perfect Bistecca alla Fiorentina, a rare, tender, and juicy T-bone steak from Chianina beef, seasoned simply with salt and extra virgin olive oil. Your cooking session begins with preparing a classic Tuscan appetizer, bruschettas, followed by learning how to grill the steak slowly for optimal flavor.

After the steak rests, you will prepare grilled vegetables and a simple salad to accompany the main dish. To finalize the meal, the chef will teach you to bake cantuccini, the famous Tuscan almond biscuits, traditionally dipped in vinsanto dessert wine.

Enjoy the three-course meal you prepared, paired with unlimited local wines and a glass of vinsanto. This hands-on experience will elevate your cooking skills and your understanding of Florentine cuisine.
