A stroll through the caruggio of Sestri Levante in Liguria. More or less around this time, but last year, I took this beautiful photo of the caruggio (this is what the pedestrian street that crosses a village is called in Liguria) of my town, Sestri Levante. Almost deserted, just as many Sestresi like it.

A sumptuous villa on Viale Millo in Chiavari. Sooner or later I will have photographed them all, the beautiful villas that populate the western side of Viale Enrico Millo. As many of you have written to me, they are almost all homes built by Chiavari emigrants who returned rich from the Americas.

The wonderful Porta delle Saline in Rapallo. Perhaps a little hidden but truly one of the most beautiful things to see in the center of Rapallo. It is located at the end of the seafront promenade and can be walked along to enter the alley.

It is the only survivor of the five gates of the ancient “walled village”, and owes its name to its proximity to the salt mines, of which the Genoese Doria family had a monopoly, which were active for many centuries in the flat area near the beach in the centre of the gulf.

A glimpse of via Vittorio Veneto in Chiavari. Chiavari is certainly the Ligurian city with the most porticoes. The historic center is entirely crossed by a straight road that takes several topographical us. First is via Martiri della Liberazione; then continues in via Vittorio Veneto and ends in Corso Dante.

Le trofie di farina di castagne con il pesto alla genovese. Ovviamente, da buon ligure, uno dei miei piatti preferiti è la pasta condita con il pesto (di basilico). Quando poi ho a disposizione anche le trofie impastate con la farina di castagne il piatto risulta ancora più buono.

There is a type of trofie kneaded with chestnut flour called “bastard” trofie, which has a sweeter taste than normal or white trofie. You can also mix white trofie with chestnut trofie to give a delicate taste to the dish. In addition to pesto, trofie bastarde can be seasoned with walnut sauce. Continue and learn more on Wikipedia
