Private Experience
Your experience
In the heart of Palermo, I will welcome you for a creative and convivial cooking class, where Sicilian tradition meets colour, seasonality and authentic flavours. Together we will prepare a vegan dough made with flour and water, naturally enriched with spinach and basil for green hues or with beetroot for red tones.
We’ll make ravioli in various shapes and fresh pasta shapes such as tagliatelle, tagliolini and fettuccine, using fillings made from seasonal vegetables like aubergines, artichokes, pumpkin and potatoes. The pasta will be served with a fragrant citrus pesto featuring oranges, pine nuts, basil, mint and fried aubergines, showcasing the most authentic flavours of Sicily. To round off the experience, a toast with Italian prosecco and a taste of sfincione.

- From the moment we arrived, Rosa Maria made us feel so welcome and at home. She was warm, patient, and genuinely passionate about sharing Sicilian cooking traditions. We learned so much — the pasta was incredible and everything we made tasted authentic and delicious. The whole experience felt personal and well-organized, and we left with recipes and skills we’ll definitely use again. Highly recommend her class to anyone looking for a real taste of Sicily! Would book again in a heartbeat.
- Rosa was an amazing host! Very welcoming and loved showing people how to cook Sicilian dishes. The pasta was incredible and the tiramisu was outstanding! Highly recommend taking one of her classes.
- My family and I had had the best time with Rosa Maria. She is the sweetest and was very helpful. We definitely learned a lot from her and the food was amazing. We would certainly do this again and I would recommend anyone to take this cooking class.
- A big thank you for this wonderful experience, we had an excellent time! We will be able to recreate these delicious Sicilian dishes with Ornella and let our loved ones taste them 😊 A very warm welcome! Thank you for everything!
- Rosa Maria was very welcoming and kind to us, we couldn’t have asked for a better host. We learned a lot and will definitely be taking the lesson home with us.

Where
Rosa Maria
Cesarina from 2018Location: Palermo (PA) Languages: Italian, English, French In Sicily, especially in Palermo, there is one true regional cuisine — based on four essential ingredients: pasta, olive oil, vegetables, and oily fish. These are the foundations of my cooking. My dishes reflect this tradition, but I love to add a touch of imagination and a desire to experiment, always staying true to the spirit of our ancient recipes. I use ingredients that are deeply connected to the land and sea of Sicily. I welcome my guests here in Palermo, but through my food, I also invite them to discover the aromas and flavors of Favignana, Ustica, and San Vito Lo Capo.
