The story

About the dish

Chef Roberto makes fresh beetroot fettuccine and dresses it with Genovese walnut sauce. The beets give the pasta its color and earthy sweetness, while the walnuts bring a rounded, nutty flavor to the ribbons.

Salsa di noci is one of Genoa’s characteristic pasta sauces, especially associated with the city’s triangular filled pansoti. Davanti carries that Genovese connection into a different pasta shape, allowing the walnut sauce to coat broad beetroot strands.
