Fresh Sicilian Pasta (Maccarruna) with Pesto alla Trapanese

Cooking class: learn how to cook traditional & innovative Italian recipes from a local Cesarina

We will all make one of the typical Sicilian dishes together: Maccarruna with Pesto alla Trapanese!

We will start our feast by uncorking a cool Sicilian sparkling wine to toast to our new encounters, munching on dried fruits and oregano-scented crostini. Then we will all be with our hands in the dough! We will show you how to make Maccarruna, kneaded only with water and durum wheat flour. Then we will devote ourselves to the fragrant sauce made with tomatoes, garlic, basil, extra virgin olive oil and almonds from our countryside, complemented by savory Sicilian pecorino cheese. In the meantime we will drink good wine and taste some typical appetizers strictly made with seasonal and local products. We will conclude by cooking and tasting our Maccarruna. We are waiting for you!
