Genoa
Cooking in Genoa, the capital of the Liguria region in Italy, is a delightful celebration of fresh, local ingredients and time-honored traditions. The city’s cuisine is deeply influenced by its coastal location, with seafood featuring prominently in many dishes. Genoese cooking is known for its simplicity, allowing the natural flavors of its ingredients to shine through.
One of the city’s most iconic dishes is pesto alla genovese, a vibrant green sauce made from fresh basil, garlic, pine nuts, Parmesan cheese, and olive oil, typically served with pasta like trofie or trenette.

My husband and I had the most fantastic experience at cooking Italy! Silvia was our chef instructor and we loved her! The location was lovely, immaculate and perfectly appointed – if you are in Sorrento you must find time for Cooking Italy!

This experience is a ‘must do’ in Italy, and the beautiful setting and expert instructors at Cooking Italy in Rome make this the place to do your Italian cooking class. I don’t usually enjoy cooking but I totally enjoyed this, and the pasta we made was outstanding.

We took the pasta making class with our two boys aged 10 and 12 and we had such a great time. Luca was a friendly, fun and engaging teacher and our whole group were lovely. We made two types of pasta by hand at a relaxed pace, the boys could easily follow along and had such a good time, which meant we did too.
