Pizze Goduriose senza Formaggio!

Delicious Cheese-Free Pizzas!

The second edition of ‘Aspettando VEGenova’ is back – a series of cookery classes that precedes the Vegenova festival and embodies its spirit.

A programme of cookery classes organised in collaboration with Ligurian organisations that work every day to promote and spread the word about plant-based cuisine that is mindful, accessible and full of flavour.

The third event in the ‘Aspettando VEGenova’ series is dedicated to dairy-free cooking – a journey to discover how to replace ingredients such as cheese and dairy products with flavour and creativity in everyday dishes and on special occasions  such as ‘Saturday night pizza’ – not just for those following a vegan diet, but also for those with food intolerances or who are simply curious to explore new culinary possibilities.

In this special workshop, we’ll be joined by Francesca Cardamone, Founding Chef of Cashewficio, an artisan Ligurian business renowned for its plant-based alternatives to cheese: products made from fermented cashews which, whilst being 100% milk- and lactose-free, offer structure, texture and a rich flavour thanks to the maturing and fermentation processes typical of traditional cheeses.

During the course, we’ll learn how to use their Godurie Vegetali in surprising ways: experimenting with new combinations and flavours, learning cooking techniques, rediscovering traditional tastes and uncovering the secrets behind artisanal production – and, above all, breathing new life into the quintessential Italian dish: pizza (and pinsa!). It’s not about making sacrifices, but about learning to balance the ingredients and letting yourself be won over.

An unmissable opportunity to chat whilst getting your hands dirty alongside Francesca and take home ideas, techniques and inspiration to create dairy-free dishes and appetisers, surprising friends and family with flavour, creativity and personality.

To recap:
📆 Wednesday 22 April from 7.00 pm to around 9.00 pm
📍in the Aula Fornelli, on the first floor of the MOG Mercato Orientale at Via XX Settembre 75R
