Pizza in a Florence Pizzeria: Gelato, Cannolo or Gluten-Free

Pizza dough is four ingredients and a lot of judgement, and this class is about the judgement: how it should feel under the hands, how long to leave it. You mix it from scratch, and you bake it in a real pizza oven rather than a domestic one, which changes everything about the result. The class runs in a working pizzeria in the centre of Florence with a professional chef. There are three versions, and each has a different sweet ending and a different address, so read the option before you set out. The three-and-a-half-hour class pairs pizza with gelato, made from seasonal ingredients. The two-and-a-half-hour class swaps the gelato for a cannolo. The two-hour version is gluten-free pizza with wine, at an organic pizzeria. Whichever you take, the pizza becomes lunch or dinner, the wine is unlimited for adults and there are soft drinks and water for children. Aprons and utensils are provided, and you leave with a graduation certificate. Up to twelve people, in English or Italian.
