Among the focaccia, the famous focaccia di Recco with cheese, green focaccia and Sarzanese rich in nuts and hazelnuts.

Liguria is also a land of cheeses due to the pastures that face mainly north towards the Piedmontese Apennines. The Brusso of the upper Arroscia Valley, similar to Bruss Langarolo, the western cheese, the sheep's milk juncata.

Among the cold cuts, the classic Genoese salami, the cooked and raw Sassello salami and the Ceriana and Pignone sausages. Finally, a rarity, Zerarìa, a jelly made from beef and pork, a legacy of ancient meals for sailors on long trips. An ancient corned beef.
