  • Pizza: with three different
  • Focaccia cheese
  • Tiramisu with coffee and cocoa

I have been studying for years the techniques and various flours to be used to make a good pizza. I have gained a lot of experience in this field because after many trials I have been able to get very good doughs with different hydrations. I will teach you how to make pizza in such a way that you can replicate it at home without any difficulty. We will bake it in the wood-fired oven in spring/summer or in the home oven during winter time. I will offer two types of pizza: margherita, with pesto potatoes and green beans, I will leave it up to you to choose how to stuff the third pizza with our local products. Finally the preparation of cheese focaccia: how to make the dough, how to knead it to make it thin and finally the filling. We will finish with the preparation of the famous tiramisu.

Andrea was a most wonderful host. He was such a well mannered and informative teacher and we learned not only about how to properly prepare a delicious local meal but also he taught us the history of the meals and of the area. The entire experience was truly perfect and we all highly recommend for you to book a class with Andrea.

Andrea was a charming host. He was a great knowledgeable teacher and taught me things I will never forget. It was a pleasure to share an evening of great food and cultural exchange. Highly recommended.

When we got there Andrea showed us the garden and picked fresh produce to cook with. The food was sooo good. I couldn’t decide what was my favorite. Everything was so perfect, we will come again when we’re back.

we had such an amazing night with Andrea and his family. we started off by making tiramisu, ravioli, and truffel (not entirely sure how to spell this pasta) which were all phenomenal. his english was great and so we’re his instructions. his mom was there helping us as well as his dad, who were both lovely people. we cooked, laughed, and told stories until it was time to eat when more of his family joined us. they were all so wonderful as they welcomed us into their home and shared a meal with us as if we were their family. the food was also hands down the best italian food i’ve ever had. we made the main dishes and desserts and he brought out a homemade appetizer and fococcia bread. it was a night my family won’t forget and was so amazing meeting these people. i will 100% be reaching our next time i am in Genoa and highly highly recommend you go meet Andrea and his wonderful family and recipes.

Andrea
Cesarina from 2021Location: Genoa    Languages: Italian, English, Spanish
"It all started at the age of 12 with my first dish: the pennette with cream and asparagus. From here I decided to deepen this passion by obtaining the Hotel School and subsequently attending various private courses. I follow recipes handed down by my grandmothers, all strictly Genoese and/ or Ligurian. I live in Sestri Ponente, in the province of Genoa, where I can quickly reach the sea, but also the mountains. I welcome my guests in the room of my home and I like to customize and decorate the table according to the event."
