Cooking class: learn how to cook traditional & innovative Italian recipes from a local Cesarina
Shared Experience
Your experience
I am in touch with Messina city, the city in the Strait, and its traditional street foods because of my partner. You will learn the secrets I learned from his Nonna to prep the most iconic street food of Messina, 'His Majesty' the Pidone. A thin, crispy pastry pita-like enclosing a rich filling of Italian curly escarole, cherry tomatoes, tuma or primosale sheep cheese and salted anchovies. You will learn how to make the authentic dough without yeast, which is flaked several times to get lots of bubbles on the surface that give the characteristic crispness to the Pidone, and how to make a filling that tastes amazing.
At the end of the lesson you will be able to taste the results of your work drinking a 'Messina' iced beer. A vegetarian option is also avalaible!

Cesarina from 2022Location: Palermo Languages: English, Italian, Spanish, French"I was passionate about cooking and food since I was a child, accomplices grandmother who loved to cook and the whole family who loves to eat well. I therefore decided to pursue a university career in the field of gastronomy. I have faced a multidisciplinary and holistic path that has treated the world of food at 360 o'clock. I love cooking for my family and for others, starting from the choice of recipes and the selection of ingredients. I like to experiment and I'm particularly passionate about pastry and leavened foods. I do research on ancient cookbooks and asking around, especially older ladies, their family recipes. Sicily, like all Italy, has an invaluable gastronomic heritage, whose recipes and preparations vary from house to house, not only between cities and provinces. This gives the palate the opportunity to enjoy the same traditional dishes with different ingredients, techniques and stories."
