Il “Primo Piatto” in Italia , traditional Italian first dish .The first courses are fundamental in Italian cooking and especially during  Italian cooking classes at Toscana Mia. You will find fresh pasta with eggs,  risotto, soups and potato gnocchi

The first dish is often the main dish in Italian Cooking ,it has always been  considered such  and nowadays- because of a working insistent rhythm – it often becomes the only one consumed per meal.

What gives a lot of personality to the first courses is the combination with the right sauce, done with vegetables, meat or tomato. This is a very important point in a lesson about typical Italian cuisine.
