Pic1 We learned about machines. Since my goal is to have a gelateria, the teacher teaches me with concrete images of which machines are essential and which ones I can do without, so I learn a lot. 機械のことについて学びました。ジェラテリアを持つことを目標にしているので、先生はどの機械は必須でどの機械はなくてもやっていけるかなど具体的なイメージを持って教えてくれるのでとても勉強になります。 Pic2 I learned about materials. I felt that knowing the characteristics of the ingredients (materials) and how to cook them is where you have to show your skills. Whether to use ready-made jam or fresh fruit, there is a lot of trial and error involved, which is hard but interesting! 材料について学びました。材料(素材)の特徴を知ること、それをどう料理するか、そこが腕の見せ所なんだと感じました。出来合いのジャムを使うのか、生フルーツを使うのか、試行錯誤することがたくさんあるのは大変だけど面白い! Pic3 After the lesson, I always get to try the gelato! I try to eat different flavors every day, taking hints […]
In the classes, students learn not only techniques, but also basic Italian philosophy. Of course, you can ask questions, and I asked the teacher a question about tradition. 授業では技術だけでなく、イタリアの基本理念なども学ぶこともできます。質問なども勿論可能で、僕は先生に伝統についての質問をしました。 Pic1 Immediately after arriving in Florence, my roommate made cold pasta. First of all, I was overwhelmed by the delicious ingredients. I could not stop talking with my roommate. The next day’s class was a lot of fun and full of dishes that you would never see in Japan. フィレンツェ到着直後、ルームメイトが冷製パスタを作ってくれました。まずは素材のうまさに圧倒されました。ルームメイトとの話が止まりませんでした。 翌日の授業はとても楽しく、日本では絶対に見ないような料理がてんこ盛りでした。 Pic1 Pic2, 3 On Tuesdays, we went to the mercato (morning market) and bought fresh ingredients, unique plates, and ate panini in the middle of the store. We also went […]
Pic1 This is a dish I made at my first lesson. I was surprised at the difference between Italian eggplant and Japanese eggplant. The gnocchi was very tasty with the rich sauce and the acidity of the tomatoes. 初めてのレッスンで作った料理です。イタリアのナスは大きくて、日本との食材の違いにびっくりしました。ニョッキは濃厚なソースとトマトの酸味がマッチしていてとてもおいしかったです。 Pic2 After the lesson, we went for a walk in the city of Florence. There are historical buildings everywhere, and I enjoyed just walking around. レッスン後はフィレンツェの街を散策に。至る所に歴史的な建造物があって、歩いて回るだけでも楽しめました。 Pic3 I went to the supermarket that my roommate told me about. Unlike Japanese handbags, this one has wheels and is pulled along. At first I was puzzled because I did not know how to use it, but it is convenient and easy to carry […]

It has a rich and gentle taste of cheese, and I want to eat it every day. レッスンで作ったトマトスパゲティ。チーズのコクがあって優しい味で毎日食べたい味です。 Pic3 Eggplant, mozzarella, tomato and basil. The tomato sauce on top is superb! ナスとモッツァレラとトマトとバジルの重ね焼き。上にかけたトマトソースが絶品です Pic4 Granita. I didn’t know about it until I came to Italy!
