Shared Experience
Your experience
- Caponata
- Pasta alla Norma (traditional Sicilian pasta dish of sautéed eggplant tossed with tomato sauce and ricotta)
- Ricotta cannoli
- Biancomangiare (or tiramisu)
Amidst the scents of the Sicilian countryside and a majestic view of Mount Etna, we invite you to enjoy an authentic experience in our rural home: an intimate, warm and tradition-filled cooking class.
Together we will prepare some of the most iconic dishes of Sicilian cuisine: pasta alla Norma, caponata and, your choice, a dessert of either tiramisu or biancomangiare. It will not just be a lesson, but a story told through gestures, ingredients and family tales, handed down through the generations.
The setting is truly rural: surrounded by olive trees, vineyards and fruit trees, along with our animals – dogs, cats and two friendly little goats – which make the atmosphere even more lively and authentic.
All accompanied by refreshing spritzes and Etna wine, to make every moment convivial

Where
Francesca
Cesarina from 2025Location: Taormina (ME) Languages: Italian, English, German, FrenchMy cooking is inspired by both ancient and modern Sicilian gastronomy, reinterpreting authentic flavors with a personal touch. In addition to traditional dishes, I often create recipes using vegan and gluten-free ingredients, offering an inclusive and genuine culinary experience. I carefully select every ingredient, sourcing my products from the weekly market, where I buy fresh farm vegetables and fruits, free-range eggs, artisanal cheeses, olives, and high-quality dried fruits. The extra virgin olive oil we use is self-produced, ensuring freshness and authenticity. Our bread comes from a local artisanal bakery that uses local flours, sourdough, and ancient grains, respecting traditional methods. To preserve and pass on the flavors of the past, I have rediscovered my great-grandmother's recipes, bringing to the table dishes that tell the story and identity of my land.
