Shared Experience
Your experience
Aperitif with local specialties
Fresh pasta with swordfish sauce
Swordfish “alla Ghiotta” (Swordfish in Sicilian-style tomato and olive sauce)
Sicilian cannoli, almond pastries, or tiramisu
You can celebrate a significant event with a typical culinary experience from my city. My home will be your home for the entire experience, and I will reveal to you the secrets of Sicilian cooking, particularly on how to cook 'swordfish a ghiotta' (a typical fish from our seas, cooked in tomato sauce). We will begin with a characteristic aperitif with local cheeses and meats, accompanied by a DOCG Prosecco, followed by a first course of fresh pasta topped with swordfish sauce. This will be followed by a second course, the 'swordfish a ghiotta'. A true delight, unique in its kind! We will conclude the experience with a dessert of your choice between Sicilian cannoli, almond pastries, or tiramisu. The meal will be accompanied by a typical DOCG wine from the territory, red or white.
A truly unforgettable experience. Words cannot describe the hospitality and friendliness of Rossella and Giuseppe. Memories for a lifetime. Food, wine, laughs, talk and lessons on cooking.

Initially, I hoped to travel to Sicily and find a good cook to teach me authentic Sicilian cuisine, fearing that I would only find touristy classes online. But I wasn't mistaken in booking a class with Rossella ❤️ Thank you for your welcome, your kindness, your expertise, and your desire to share the secrets of Sicilian cooking. Recommended without any hesitation! A huge thank you. My most beautiful experience in Sicily 🙏❤️🙏

We highly recommend this experience. From meeting in the market to shop for fresh ingredients, to being welcomed into Rosella's lovely home where we learnt how to prepare a pasta dish (including making fresh pasta!) we had a fun time. Eating our delicious food accompanied by good company, prosecco and wine rounded off a great morning.

This was the best experience we have ever had. Rossella was a great teacher and host. She was extremely accommodating. I 100% recommend her.

I have always been passionate about cooking, with the desire to try new recipes and experiment with new tastes, always maintaining a bond of flavors and smells of my Sicily. I like to take care of the presentation of the dish and I like to share my passion with others. My house is large and welcoming, always ready to host friends and tourists to whom I can give the pleasure of tasting some local delicacies.
