Shared Experience
Your experience
In my kitchen you will learn how to prepare two different fresh pasta doughs to make 3 traditional pasta shapes such as busiate, cavatelli, tagliatelle or ravioli. I will reveal all my secrets for making a perfect dough, a flavoursome filling and cooking the pasta al dente! We will use traditional tools such as rolling pins, ravioli cutters and most importantly our hands, the authentic tool to 'feel' the dough!
Fresh pasta will be seasoned with a traditional sauce following seasonality. In addition to preparing the recipes you will get to learn secrets and anecdotes about the history of the dishes. At the end of the preparation you will be able to taste the dishes made with a glass of an excellent local wine.

- We had the most incredible experience cooking with Alice! She was warm and inviting and we had such a lovely time learning new recipes.
- Our evening making pasta in Alice and Francesco's home was amazing! They were knowledgeable and patient teachers and the meal they created was amazing! Highly recommended!
- I booked this pasta making class for myself, my husband, 2 kids and their spouses. We had the best time making 2 different types of pasta and our own personal tiramisu. This class was in our host's personal home. Alice and her partner (sorry can't remember his name) were so welcoming, genuine and so nice. We had a lot of fun with them. Once all the pasta was cooking and the tiramisu was chilling, they set us up in their living room with appetizers and Italian wine. We all sat down at their dining room table and had a delicious feast of the 2 different types of pasta, one with a pesto sauce and the other with a ragu sauce served with Prosecco. The fresh pasta and sauce were out of this world delicious. The tiramisu we made was wonderful. If you're ever in Palermo and find yourself with some extra time, I would highly recommend taking this pasta class with Alice. We booked this class through Viator.
- We had the best time learning about Sicilian cuisine from Alice and her husband. Our family of 7 cooked and ate and enjoyed our time immensely. Such a welcoming host and authentic experience. Highly recommend and we hope to be back to Palermo again!!!
- We had a terrific time with Alice and Francesco. We prepared a vegetarian menu of panelle, pasta and dessert. All were delicious. Alice was very patient helping us figure out what to do and Francesco was a great host. The day concluded with a meal and great conversation. I really enjoyed the experience and the meal.

Where
Alice
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."
