The experience begins with a warm welcome, where you will be introduced to the thousand-year history of ancient Sicilian grains and the selection of seasonal ingredients. Under the expert guidance of a local professional, you will literally get your hands in the dough to bring traditional focaccia to life: you will learn the secrets of natural leavening and kneading by hand to obtain a soft, fragrant dough.
The journey continues with the star of the deli: the arancina. You'll learn how to shape the rice using the traditional technique, enclosing the filling in a perfect centre and achieving that crispy breadcrumb coating that makes it famous around the world.
The activity culminates in a convivial food tasting where you can enjoy what you have created, celebrating your culinary success with a glass of local DOC wine. It won't just be a cooking class, but a total immersion in the rhythms and aromas of the most authentic Sicily, which you'll take home thanks to the exclusive recipe book included in the experience.
