About this Event

About this Class: It’s time to get your hands messy! In our hands-on format, our Scuola Chef will prepare the signature dish for you to taste in class. You’ll then dive right in to making the recipe yourself from scratch. Take your culinary creation with you at the end of class and enjoy your own hard work at home!

About this Dish: This bright green and flavorful Pesto is originally from Genoa, Italy. Made from only basil, pine nuts, olive oil, and cheese, Pesto alla Genovese gets its name from the word pestare, meaning to pound or crush, as the traditional method uses a mortar and pestle to mix the sauce.

In this Class You Will:

  • Learn about the traditions and culture of Pesto alla Genovese
  • Observe as our Scuola Chef teaches the group how to make Pesto alla Genovese
  • Make your own Pesto alla Genovese from scratch by hand
  • Enjoy a menu featuring an antipasto, welcome Prosecco, and Pesto alla Genovese prepared by our Chef alongside a wine pairing

Please Note:

This class will take place in our La Scuola located on the 2nd floor.
