We'll meet at my house, then we'll go together to the Mercato del Capo, which is only 100 meters away.
We will see lots of food shops, from fishmongers to fruit and vegetable shops, and we can buy all the ingredients and special spices we need to cook together eggplant caponata and busiate (Sicilian macaroni) with Sicilian pesto with sun-dried tomatoes, almonds, basil, mint, caciocavallo cheese, and oregano, according to my own personal recipe. Finally, we will prepare cannoli with ricotta cream together, an ancient recipe!

- Great pasta class. Rosa Maria is a great host and an excellent teacher of cooking. We made the pasta and sauce and then sat down together to enjoy our efforts with some lovely wine.
- We have just had a fantastic morning at Rosa Maria’s cooking pasta, Rosa was friendly and inviting, she took time to explain and it tasted delicious, I would highly recommend this activity, thank you for having us in your beautiful home
- Cooking with Rosa Maria was by FAR the best part of our trip! We loved getting a tour of the market and learning a but about Palermo. Rosa Maria’s house was beautiful and learning to make eggplant caponata, fresh pasta with sun-dried tomato pesto, and FRESH cannoli was amazing. Rosa Maria is so kind, knowledgeable, and a very patient teacher :)We’d love to come back with friends and we are absolutely booking with her again! Thank you, Rosa Maria!
- Oh my goodness such fun!! RosaMaria was amazing and I actually made fresh pasta! I would highly recommend this experience to everyone. Eating with her and her family was the best end to a great trip around Sicily!!
- We had a wonderful experience with Rosa Maria. She went out of her way to make us feel welcome in her home. She was great at explaining the he process we followed and the end result was a beautiful pasta dish we feel comfortable replicating going forward. Awesome authentic local experience!

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.
