Your experience
  • Savoury tarts with vegetables from the garden
  • Sweet rice cake

Join Barbara for a unique culinary experience and discover the secrets of her grandmother Antonietta’s recipes! In this course, you’ll learn to make seasonal savoury tarts using fresh, local ingredients: wild herbs from the fields such as dandelion, borage and wild cardoons, seasonal vegetables like potatoes and artichokes, and special flours such as chestnut, chickpea or polenta. Each pie tells the story of Liguria and Barbara’s family tradition.

For the desserts, Barbara will guide you through the preparation of sweet rice cakes, apple tarts, aniseed biscuits and other traditional treats. The result will be an authentic Italian-style brunch, filled with aromas, flavours and moments of conviviality.

Hi there, I'm Barbara!
 I was born in the Gulf of Poets, to a Sardinian mother and a Genoese father, and spent my childhood with my beloved grandparents. I like to think of myself as a citizen of the world, but I have a strong connection to my land and its traditions, as does my husband Stefano. Together, we want to share our passion for cooking and our roots with other enthusiasts and curious minds. Since I was a child, I developed a strong passion for cooking, thanks to my grandmother who taught me to experiment and taste new flavors. I have always been adventurous and have tried all the original recipes from different countries around the world, but Ligurian cuisine remains my favorite. We decided to open the doors of our house, located on the terraces of the Cinque Terre above Riomaggiore, to share our passion for cooking and local culture. For us, cooking is the best way to tell the story of our land and pass on the true Ligurian tradition to others. We are excited to share this culinary journey with guests from around the world!
