Sicilian Cooking Lesson from Taormina

A 9:00 am appointment with chef Massimo at Porta Messina for a little coffee break. The tour will begin at the Taormina market with the explanation of the displayed products and how they can be handled. After the explanation, we buy the ingredients that we need for the lesson. After reaching the restaurant, the participants will find an already prepared table with all the tools on and they will be equipped with an apron. We will start making home-made pasta with a very traditional method. After the fresh pasta, we proceed to make “home-made Caponata” with the vegetables that we bought at the market. During the lesson, we will prepare many other dishes of the Sicilian culinary tradition such as fresh sardines, zucchini flowers and more. Once finished the course, all participants will sit at a table for tasting the prepared dishes and different Sicilian wines and liquors. Mineral water and coffee included, of course! To all guests will be released a nice recipe in English and a certificate of participation from the Chef.
