Description

The cooking class takes place in a small and comfortable environment, together with a limited number of fellow “chefs” coming from all over the world. Our cooking class in Ortygia Syracuse is the funniest and tastiest way to discover Syracuse and its rich culinary tradition. You will be guided in the preparation of the traditional Arancino and have a little aperitivo with typical Sicilian delicacies such as: ARANCINO: Famours all over the world, Arancino consists of a ball of rice stuffed with a variety of ingredients (meat, cooked ham, spinach, pistachios, aubergines and more) and then deep fried in the traditional way. CAPONATA or PARMIGIANA: Caponata is a mixture of fried vegetables (mostly aubergines), seasoned with tomato sauce, celery, onion, olives, capers, sugar and vinegar. There are numerous variations of it, as it is widespread throughout the Mediterranean Sea. Caponata is generally used today as a side dish or hors d’oeuvre, but since the 18th century it has been a main course. PARMIGIANA is a Sicilian dish made with fried, sliced eggplant layered with Parmesan cheese and tomato sauce, then baked. Exquisite! CANNOLO: the wafer, traditionally moulded around a hot metal bar, is filled with a sweet and creamy preparation made with ricotta cheese, candied fruit, crunchy pistachios or dark chocolate chips. This is the perfect class to experience with your partner, family or a group of friends.
