Genoese pesto sauce in the mortar

Express cooking class: learn how to make Pesto and enjoy an appetizer with a glass of local wine

I'm waiting for you for this cooking class, where, equipped with a mortar and pestle, you can create with your own hands a little strength and patience, the pesto sauce.

Pesto is a traditional ligurian sauce for pasta handmade: mandilli, trenette, gnocchi and trofie. I'll tell you how to use mortar and all ingredients, each of you will have a workstation. Now you can start. When pesto is ready we'll prepare mandilli pasta handmade. This typical genoese pasta is made with flour, egg, water and white wine. Finally we'll enjoy, first of all, mixed ligurian appetizers: cuculli, cheese focaccia, omelette and local cheese. Then we'll eat mandilli pasta with pesto sauce that you prepared earlier. This experience ends with a dessert. Are you ready to try this experience?
