Cooking class with lunch in a typical Ligurian house with sea view.
Meeting with the Guide at 10:00-10:30 at Recco train station, or on request in your hotel (price apart)
We will discover the little town of Recco, considered the gastronomic capital of Liguria. We will go the market to buy the fresh ingredients needed for our cooking class. During our walk, we will get to know the life of the village. Our guide will tell us about the epochal changes that occurred in Liguria, the region that a long time ago was a global maritime power.
After shopping we will head towards a typical Genoese house by the sea. Here, in the garden overlooking the Bay of Friars, we will learn to cook some traditional dishes, with a touch of modernity.
We will use fresh and selected ingredients, in many cases cultivated directly by us, such as the extraordinary saffron of Monte di Portofino.
The chef recommends:
FIRST COURSE
- Fresh handmade Corxetti with pesto souce (we will prepare fresh both) or
- Handmade fresh “gnocchetti” potato dumplings stuffed with prosciutto, flavoured with nutmeg, in white pepper and saffron sauce.
SECOND COURSE
- Sea bass or catch of the day in Genoise style with potatoes pine nuts and extra vergin olive oil
DESSERT
