Your experience

    Discover the authentic flavors of Sicily with a cooking class dedicated to scacciata—a stuffed pizza that dates back to the 16th century and was traditionally made for Christmas. Today, it's a beloved Sicilian street food with a thin, crispy crust, filled with cheese, anchovies, olives, or seasonal vegetables like broccoli, cauliflower, potatoes, or sausage. We’ll start from scratch, making the dough with flour, olive oil, and yeast, and filling it using our cherished family recipe. You’ll also learn to prepare cipollina, a puff pastry typical of Catania, filled with onion, tomato, and cheese. We’ll finish on a sweet note with biancomangiare, an ancient Sicilian dessert. I can't wait to welcome you!

    Sono andata a cena della signora Giampatrizia assieme ad una mia amica e ci siamo trovate veramente bene, un po’ come in famiglia. Appena siamo arrivate abbiamo notato la cura nel dettaglio della tavola con al centro una composizione floreale. Nonostante le nostre scarse doti culinarie, sotto l’attenta e paziente supervisione della nostra Cesarina, abbiamo mangiato tantissimi piatti molto buoni della tradizione siciliana, dall’antipasto al dolce. La serata è stata assolutamente di nostro gradimento e i padroni di casa si sono dimostrate persone disponibili anche nel consigliarci modi per arricchire il nostro itinerario durante il viaggio. Risate e chiacchiere non sono mancate, esperienza assolutamente da provare, consigliassimo!!!!

    My kitchen embodies the rich Sicilian tradition passed down through generations, adapted to cater to various dietary needs, including gluten-free cuisine. With no limit on guests, I've hosted gatherings in my garden with abundant food, good music, and carefully curated setups. The Christmas dinners for my banking team were always well-received, with a focus on table arrangements and dish presentation. Beyond Sicilian tradition, I enjoy experimenting with international dishes. My hobbies include crafting jams from my orchard's fruits, making homemade liqueurs, and various preserves."
