Competitive and highly engaging team building

A tried and tested format that engages and entertains by sparking a bit of healthy competition for the prize at stake: direct access to the next edition of the World Pesto Championship.

A station for each of the 10 participants, including a mortar, pestle, ingredients, and apron.

A jury of 3 experts, who will explain and illustrate the history and preparation of pesto.

A time limit of 25 minutes to prepare the best pesto and earn a place at the Palazzo Ducale in the next Championship

After the staff has set up, the experts will give a short lesson on pesto and its ingredients, followed by a demonstration of how to prepare pesto with a mortar. At this point, participants will be invited to try their hand at preparing pesto, with a maximum time of 25 minutes, after which the judges will taste the sauces.
