Thank you so much, Jonathan! 😊 We’re delighted that you enjoyed learning how to make both handmade gnocchi and authentic Genoese pesto. Sharing our traditional recipes and the stories behind them is exactly what we love to do. We hope you’ll recreate them at home and bring a little taste of Genoa with you! 🌿🇮🇹
