Flavors of Sicily: the taste of my homeland

My name is Valentina, and cooking has always been my language of love. I live in Palermo, a city that is a mosaic of flavors, colors, and traditions—an endless source of inspiration that fuels my creativity in the kitchen every day. I organize cooking classes and specialize in meal prep and food organizing, with the goal of making everyday cooking simpler, more mindful, and more satisfying. I love working with my hands, selecting high-quality local ingredients, and transforming them into dishes that tell a story. This is my greatest passion: conveying emotions through food and creating authentic, convivial experiences that bring people together around the table. My dream? To open a spice shop in Palermo—a welcoming place where scents, culture, and tradition come together. Becoming part of the Cesarine family would mean opening my kitchen to the world, with both heart and hands.
