For centuries, its ports connected the region to the wider Mediterranean, bringing with them ingredients, techniques, and a culture rooted in trade and seafaring life. With very little flat land, its cuisine developed out of necessity—simple, resourceful, and deeply connected to what could be grown locally or preserved from the sea. It’s here that pesto was born, and where olive oil, herbs, and preserved seafood became the foundation of everyday cooking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"890\" data-end=\"1262\"\u003eFurther along the coast, in the Cinque Terre, this way of life becomes even more dramatic. Villages cling to steep cliffs, where generations have shaped the land through what is often called heroic agriculture—growing lemons, olives, and herbs on narrow terraces carved into the hillsides.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\"\u003eABOUT TONIGHT'S CLASS \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, Oxygen, Ubuntu, Cantarell, 'Open Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', sans-serif;\"\u003eOur Cucinato's Gaia Massai will be joined by Chefs Daniela De Chiara and Roberto Astegiano to lead you in the preparation of a summer rustic Ligurian meal. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1264\" data-end=\"1716\"\u003eUpon arrival, you will be treated with warm \u003cstrong\u003efocaccia genovese\u003c\/strong\u003e served with creamy stracchino cheese and prosciutto.
