Mortar pesto lesson with World Champion and local Menu

The only cooking class in which Camilla Pizzorno, Chef and World Champion of Mortar Pesto, teaches her recipe, reveals her secrets... and makes you taste an authentic three-course Ligurian menu with Italian wine and spirits. 1. You will be welcomed in a typical Ligurian garden surrounded by greenery during the summer, or in a heated outdoor area in winter. We will discover together all the ingredients of real pesto and their role. 2. Using a Carrara marble mortar and an olive wood pestle, Camilla will guide you in the preparation of your pesto with a mortar. You will crush and mix the ingredients by hand, to create the right color and texture. 3. We will taste the freshly prepared pesto with Genoese focaccia and trofie, the typical Tiramisù dessert, with local wine and Italian spirits. Important note If you have allergies/intolerances, please report this at the time of Reservation. At the beginning of the workshop you will need to sign a responsibility form : we will guarantee that the reported ingredient will not be used, but we cannot guarantee the absolute absence of contamination.
