Pasta alla Genovese is a traditional Italian dish originating from Genoa, the capital of the Liguria region. It features pasta, typically trofie or linguine, served with a rich sauce made from slow-cooked onions, meat (often beef), and a blend of herbs. The dish is known for its sweet and savory flavor profile, resulting from the caramelization of the onions during the cooking process. The sauce is usually prepared by simmering the ingredients for several hours, allowing the flavors to meld together. Pasta alla Genovese is often garnished with grated Parmesan cheese and is a beloved comfort food in Liguria and beyond.
