Gastronomic Experience in Genoa

Immerse yourself in the Ligurian culinary tradition with a day dedicated to making fresh pasta and the famous Genoese pesto. This workshop will guide you through the secrets of Genoese cuisine, offering a hands-on and authentic experience. You’ll begin with a light welcome snack that introduces you to the typical flavors of the region, before moving on to the most enjoyable part: kneading, shaping, and creating fresh pasta, such as trofie or croxetti, using traditional techniques. Accompanied by expert instructors, you’ll learn the secrets to making the perfect pesto, selecting and combining fresh, high-quality ingredients like basil, pine nuts, garlic, and extra virgin olive oil. You’ll then enjoy the dishes you’ve prepared with your own hands in a beautiful setting, surrounded by nature in a charming garden. If the weather doesn’t cooperate, the activity will take place in a cozy indoor space, without losing the magic of the experience. Lunch, which will naturally include the freshly made pesto and pasta, will be served on the terrace, where you can savor the fruits of your labor in a relaxed and convivial atmosphere. A unique opportunity to not only discover the cuisine but also immerse yourself in the culture and traditions of Genoa.
