    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".

    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 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.

    My son (13 years old) and I made pesto and gnocchi at Tiziana's. We also received delicious focaccia and fantastic tiramisu that Tiziana had previously prepared. The best tiramisu I've ever eaten. We were welcomed in a very friendly and warm-hearted manner and enjoyed preparing the food. In addition, we were well entertained by her partner Roberto and informed about genoa. It was an unforgettable experience that we warmly recommend to everyone

    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 ".
