Shared Experience
Your experience

    In this cooking class, you will learn to make 'Il Cappon Magro,' a dish created by sailors during long voyages dating back to the year 1300. Delving into the ship's hold, the ship's cook would prepare together: old stale bread, salted anchovies, and dried tuna, moistened with water, sometimes from the sea. Thus, the ancestor of Cappon Magro was born, now a sumptuous dish in Genoese and international cuisine. Assembling Il Cappon Magro, witnessing its creation, and savoring it, with its blend of flavors and aromas, is a unique experience that only someone born in Genoa and cooking this legendary dish can convey. I look forward to seeing you!

    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.

    Amazing experience for us! Learning to cook the traditional food of Genoa! Tiziana and Roberto made us feel very welcome in their home and treated us like family and even gave us great local recommendations. It was the favorite part of our time in Italy!

    "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 ".
