Shared Experience
Your experience
  • Palermo-style baked pasta
  • Cacio all'argentiera (pan-seared aged cheese with garlic)

Palermo baked pasta is a type of ring-shaped pasta with meat sauce, peas and cheese. Its preparation requires attention and time. This type of dish is eaten on Sundays or holidays.Every Sicilian family has its own secret recipe and I am ready to reveal mine.

You will be welcomed in my atelier nestled in the Ballarò neighborhood. Together we will prepare this type of pasta and an appetizer, the famous "Cacio all'Argentiera": caciocavallo cheese with vinegar, oil and oregano,also baked in the oven. We will enjoy lunch with excellent organic Sicilian wine and finish with homemade liqueurs. Water, encores and coffee will not be missed!

Rosa was an amazing host! We learned so much about making pasta and pesto, and she welcomed us into her space with so much warmth. We will never forget sharing a self-cooked meal with authentic Italians. Thank you for everything Rosa!!

Had a fantastic evening with Rosa! The dishes were simple and yet prepared with great care and skill - the essence of Italian cuisine. Rosa is an incredibly warm and generous host. Thank you again for such a lovely experience!

Our Sicilian cooking experience with Rosa in her home was fantastic. Rosa expertly showed us how to make pasta and Tiramisu from scratch. Rosa cooked the pasta and we enjoyed a wonderful meal with two other nice travellers from Switzerland. We highly recommend the Pasta & Tiramisù cooking class with the beautiful Rosa.

We had a Pasta & Tiramisu cooking class with the beautiful and delightful Rosa on Friday 13th 2024 in Palermo. Rosa was so warm and welcoming we felt right at home as she expertly showed us how to make fresh pasta and Tiramisu from scratch. We later enjoyed the beautiful food with Rosa and two wonderful fellow travellers from Switzerland. Not only did Rosa wow us with her beautiful food, her singing was amazing and wonderfully entertaining. We highly recommend this experience with Rosa.

I love to cook and experiment, but in the end I love to cook and eat Sicilian, using Sicilian products at Km 0. What I cook was taught to me by my mother, by aunts and grandmothers acquired over time. I am a singer and actress, so I love to sing while I cook and entertain my guests with songs and stories of our Sicily bedda. At my table, simple and well-finished, seasonal dishes, with attention for vegetarians and gluten intolerant.
