David, who also shares sons Brooklyn, 24, Rome, 20, and Cruz, 18, wife Victoria, 49, even shared a quick look inside the refrigerator during his most recent tutorial, as it overflowed with fresh meat, fruit and condiments.
Completing the country aesthetic there is a black double-fronted AGA as well as traditional pizza oven with a huge pile of firewood ready for the family to rustle up the Italian dish.

Fans took to the comment section to comment on the stunning kitchen and their cooking skills.
One wrote: ‘Harper is the real star of the kitchen’, another added: ‘Oh my god. A normal-looking fridge not all stacked in rainbow order and everything decanted into identical bowls! I am a Beckham!!!’
A third chimed: ‘Loving the kitchen and when did little Harper suddenly grow up?! And why doesn’t my kitchen have a David Beckham in it?! Loving the father daughter time.’
It comes after Brooklyn risked the wrath of his followers once again with another ‘out of touch’ cooking video which he shared to his Instagram on Wednesday.
The aspiring chef, 24, took to the social media platform to promote a collaboration with Chosen Foods avocado oil, which retails from between $15 and $20.
Introducing the video, Brooklyn explained to his fans that he would be making some fried chicken by shallow frying it using the brand’s ‘100 per cent avocado’ oil.
The son of David and Victoria shared a clip of how to create the fried chicken, but fans took issue with the oil he chose to use.
Despite claims of the oil’s ‘high smoke point and neutral flavor’, Brooklyn’s followers claimed that he was using a ‘huge amount’ of the expensive product for the recipe.
Brooklyn, who has previously come under fire for his ostentatious ingredients including truffle and a £60 rib of beef, was once again being ribbed for his choices.

His critics argued that Brooklyn could have promoted the product using a far more cost effective recipe, rather than using ‘the whole bottle’ on two pieces of chicken.
They said: ‘Why on earth are you deep frying in oil that costs $15/20 per bottle? I realise this is paid promo but something a bit more logical like make a mayo from scratch with it, rather than dump that much into a pan to fry some chicken!
They concluded: ‘Cozzie lives Brookie babes x.’
Another person noted the amount of oil Brooklyn had used, and said: ‘That’s at least $25 worth of avocado oil!’
Others referenced the amount of oil used generally, noting that it would have been a healthier option to bake the chicken rather than fry it.
One person joked: ‘Hi Brooklyn, looks great, is it ok for my grandfather with clogged arteries? Thanks.’
Another quizzed: ‘Couldn’t you have baked the chicken? Why fry it in a huge amount of oil? Why provoke people to eat very harmful and unhealthy food. sucks.’
