Hands-on cooking class with bruschetta, 3 recipes (starter, pasta and dessert) followed by an Italian aperitivo and a tasting of the recipes prepared during the lesson
- Sicilia traditional starter
- Homemade pasta with sicilian sauce/pesto
- Sicilian traditional dessert
In a familiar and comfortable environment I will guide you step by step to the creation of an entire 3-course Sicilian menu from starter to dessert.
You will be greeted by a welcome drink and immediately afterwards you will tie on your apron to start cooking! We will begin by preparing bruschetta and a starter that varies with the season. Then I will reveal the tricks for making the best fresh pasta at home, starting with the dough made of water and flour, which will be topped with a great seasonal sauce that I will teach you how to prepare. We will also make together a traditional dessert according to the season such as water melon jelly or a cassatella with ricotta cheese. At the end of the preparation we will taste the dishes together with some excellent local wine.
Reviews
- The pasta making experience with Alice was great! She added context to all that we were doing by explaining some culinary history and rationale for why things were done the way they were - plus the food was delicious! I would absolutely recommend to others.
- This cooking class was a highlight of our trip! Great recipes and felt like we were cooking and eating with our new Italian friends - highly recommend!
- I had a lovely time with Alice and Francesco. I was the only one in the class. They were knowledgeable and lovely to chat with. Highly recommended.
- Alice & Francesco were amazing hosts! Our group absolutely loved visiting their beautiful home, cooking traditional Sicilian pasta & tiramisu, & trying different local foods. What made our evening with A&F so special, was their incredible generosity! We were also blown away by their friendliness & the amount of information they were able to share with us, not only about the local produce & traditional recipes but also about Palermo’s politics & history. We could not recommend A&F enough- they were fantastic teachers & wonderful hosts! Thank you!!
- Alice and Francesco were amazing hosts. This was our first time in Italy and they were by far the most memorable part of our trip, also the best food we ate on the trip. We would highly recommend booking a class with her while you are staying in Palermo.
