Shared Experience
Your experience
  • Genoese pesto made with a mortar
  • Gnocchi or Trofie of fresh semolina pasta

Tiziana awaits you in the grounds of Villa Serra di Comago, an English-style jewel with centuries-old trees, 250 species of hydrangeas and a romantic pond populated by black and white swans and oriental ducks. In spring and summer, the cooking class of Genoese pesto al mortaio with D.O.P. basil takes place in the garden; in fall and winter in the villa's large, carefully restored kitchen. After a tour of the historic 1763 halls, renovated in 2004, a tasting of the pesto prepared together with Tiziana will follow, accompanied by Genoese focaccia and prosecco. We will put our hands to pasta to make gnocchi or trofie, to be tasted with our fresh pesto.

Tiziana and Roberto were so welcoming and kind. We felt right at home and were given the cooking lesson of a lifetime. We learned so much and we were stunned at how hospitable they were. Highly recommend this cooking class to anyone who is a fan of authentic Italian cooking. Thank you Roberto and Tiziana.

We had an amazing experience! They made us feel welcomed and they had so much to teach us. We were very lucky to experience it being a small group and being able to prepare 2 pastas and the tiramisu! Tiziana was patient and gave us good tips and instructions! Roberto was very helpful to translate some information and also give us recommendations of things to do in the area! They have a beautiful home and this was definitely the highlight of our trip! Thank you again!

I thoroughly enjoyed the class. Tiziana & Roberto were excellent hosts. And Tiziana guided us through making tiramisu, ravioli, and the Ligurian regional pasta, corzetti. I learned a lot and gained the confidence I need to try making pasta when I return home.

Tiziana
Cesarina from 2022Location: Manesseno    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 ".
