Your experience
I will reveal the secrets of crafting authentic Genovese DOP basil pesto using a mortar, and you may even be inspired to join the World Pesto Championship.
Additionally, we'll prepare walnut sauce, a classic Genoese condiment that pairs wonderfully with pansotti (herb-filled ravioli), highlighting the region's aromatic herbs. Furthermore, we'll bake Genoese sage focaccia. Join me at my home in the heart of Genoa, just steps away from the historic Palazzi dei Rolli, a noble gathering place in the 1700s. Don't miss this opportunity to learn the art of handcrafting the world's most renowned sauce: "Il Pesto".

- Our time with Tiziana and Roberto was unbelievable. We booked this experience at the last minute (the night before) when our other plans got canceled due to weather. Tiziana was quick to let us know how to find their location. It was a blessing to be able to meet them and learn from them. Their home was so welcoming and we will never forget the memories we made.
- Tiziana and her husband Roberto were lovely hosts! They made me feel at home immediately. Tiziana was a patient and instructive teacher, and not afraid to share her cooking secrets ;-) And the pasta and tiramisu turned out delicious. I would highly recommend this experience.
- Absolutely amazing experience. Tiziana and her husband were extremely welcoming and the best hosts. The food came out so good too. Can't wait to make it again when I get home.
- This was amazing experience. Tiziana was a wonderful host and chef!the pasta and tiramisu she showed us how to make turned out great. It honestly was one of the best travel experiences IAH e ever had
- This was the highlight of our trip so far. Tiziana and Roberto were amazing hosts! Her pesto is absolutely delicious. All the food she taught us to make - pasta and tiramisu was wonderful. We couldn’t believe we had made it. It was so much fun to see a private Genoa home built in the 1500s. Sign up for this; you won’t regret it. We loved everything about it.

Where
Tiziana
Cesarina from 2022Location: Genoa Languages: Italian and English"The delights of Tiziana are a mix of traditional Ligurian cuisine, with Venetian and Calabrian influences . My family has origins linked to these three regions and my passion for cooking and hospitality began when I was a child. eight years I organized parties at my house and I chose the menu with my mother Maria, a Venetian who grew up in Genoa, who helped me and in the meantime I was learning. In my home, which is located in the heart of Genoa, located in a "creuza de but "one step away from the historic center of Genoa, I propose a very eclectic cuisine: from the lean cappon of the Ligurian tradition in its most sumptuous dimension, to the top treated like a divinity that is realized after long passages, to finish with pesto, prepared with the basil picked on the right day just sprouted. A cuisine that transmits love as well as taste and good humor for days and days ".
