Manage episode 443920080 series 2852175
Ligurian cuisine, from the coastal region of Liguria in northwestern Italy, is known for its fresh, simple, and flavorful dishes that highlight the area’s Mediterranean ingredients. Pesto alla Genovese, a fragrant basil-based sauce with pine nuts, garlic, Parmesan, and olive oil, is one of the region’s most famous contributions to Italian cuisine, typically served with trofie or trenette pasta. Liguria’s coastline also brings an abundance of seafood, often used in dishes like buridda, a hearty fish stew. Focaccia, especially the olive oil-laden version from Genoa, is another staple, sometimes topped with onions or olives. Ligurian cuisine often reflects the use of wild herbs, vegetables, and citrus, making it a refreshing and light yet deeply satisfying culinary experience.
