Clase de cocina en Palermo con visita al mercado

Great news we announce the inclusion of one of our most popular offerings in Palermo! This is a small group cooking lesson that encompasses learning several recipes of traditional Sicilian cuisine from an expert chef practicing in a beautiful market in Palermo, famously known as one of the most beautiful towns in Sicily. When you get to the center of Palermo, at our cooking school, a local chef will greet you warmly and act as your host for the day. Your journey will start with a trip to Palermo’s famous “mercato del capo” market where you are going to get very close to tasting all this city’s food treasures. In this market tour, our guide will introduce you to the local vendors offering their fresh fruits, fish, meat, and cheese. We will help you get to know those really important ingredients of those typical Sicilian dishes and compare your personal selection for your recipes with the best selection. Furthermore, you are going to have a chance to buy seasonal local products in person so as to prepare some of the dishes from tradition in Palermo. You’re going to become a Sicilian food expert for a little while with your personal chef side! Now you’ll taste the food of Sicily and know what fresh ingredients to be choosing for your cooking class.

A cooking class that dives into the unique flavors of Palermo's cuisine

Your apron is on, and your cooking class has begun. A professional chef will educate you in the preparation of traditionally representative Sicilian cultural dishes in the manner of engagement typical of our cooking classes. You will then have an opportunity to roll up your sleeves and experience cooking these dishes practically by yourself while the chef directs each step of the process. We’ll also discuss and share with you during your culinary experience which are the right authentic ways to prepare and taste Sicilian food. Let me give you a hint of the things you will learn to prepare and taste. During your Palermo cooking class, you will be instructed to prepare a three-course meal of Sicilian specialities from the menu (it may vary according to seasonal ingredients) which’ll incorporate crafting “arancine,” that is rice balls which are fried and stuffed with meat sauce and peas, as well as Pasta alla norma prepared tomato sauce, fried in eggplants, and salted ricotta and served with the world-famous Sicilian dessert: cannoli!

Craft Your Own Unforgettable Sicilian Dining Experience

Finally, you will be going to reap the fruits of your labor by having yourself Sicilian tastes within the friendly atmosphere of our cooking school based in Palermo. By the time you leave, you’ll have rekindled your love for Sicilian food, complete with recipes and ways to pull off these dishes in your own kitchen.
