Cooking lesson: learn how to cook Italian recipes with a local Cesarina
Private experiences are reserved for you and any guests you have booked for: no other people will be added so that you can enjoy maximum privacy.
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".

- Tiziana and Roberto were amazing! I booked a class for myself and my two teenagers and it was definitely the highlight of the trip so far. It is hard to know looking online if something is going to be personal or super touristy, and I can happily say that Tiziana and Roberto welcomed us into their home and we immediately felt like visiting family instead of strangers. The food was fantastic and we got to sample other dishes while waiting for ours to finish. A beautiful home, a beautiful family, and the best pesto I have ever eaten!
- Ho regalato questa esperienza ad una mia amica per il suo compleanno. Tiziana ci ha accolto in casa sua con entusiasmo e ci ha messo subito a nostro agio! Ci ha insegnato i segreti della cucina locale, lavorando la pasta e cucinandola poi insieme. Esperienza unica e da rivivere!
- What a great experience! I wish I could leave more then 5 stars!!! Tiziana and Roberto were extremely accommodating and so fun to cook with! Tiziana showed us the ins and outs to creating local Italian cuisine! The final product was delicious! And the Tiramisu was the best we’ve ever had! We are so excited to put our new skills into practice back home in Australia! We Highly recommend Tiziana’s cooking class for any travellers if they want a relaxed and fun activity to do in Genoa! Thank you Tiziana and Roberto
- Should you find yourself in Genoa, please enjoy an amazine culinary experience with hosts, Tiziana and Roberto. My son, daughter and I shared the evening learning to make tiramisu, ravioli pasta and sailor's biscuit. Tiziana and Roberto were warm and welcoming, and made us feel at home in theirs. Not only did we enjoy the food we prepared, but were also treated to delicious wine, coffee, and focaccia bread, as well as Tiziana's signature pesto sauce, which will certainly have a great run at the Pesto World Championships this year (she has our vote!). Even with a very slight language barrier, the conversation flowed and new friendships were formed (food is a universal language, after all). We cannot recommend this experience enough to those who enjoy delicious food, great company, and fine Italian culture. Thank you Tiziana and Roberto!
- Piacevolissima serata in compagnia della Cesarina Tiziana che ci ha subito messo a nostro agio... ci ha fatto preparare la pasta fresca che abbiano poi mangiato con un buonissimo pesto al mortaio...divino! Ci ha preparato poi una buonissima farinata, delle polpettine con flan di zucca e uno strepitoso tiramisu! Che dire, una cena buonissima, una compagnia perfetta!!! Esperienza assolutamente da provare!
