If you see the term genovese in general Italian cookery books, two things come to mind. If it refers to a dish that connotes Liguria, then genovese would mean the presence of pesto. In Naples, genovese is a sauce of meat and onions and it has nothing to do with Liguria. But Salsa alia Genovese is something else again. This is a flavorful vegetable—red wine sauce that is considered an ideal condiment for poached fish.
