Traditional vegetarian cooking class in Palermo with a local host

Discover the essence of Palermo during an authentic culinary journey where tradition is brought to life through tantalising aromas, cherished memories and hands kneading dough. This cooking class offers a chance to prepare three staples of local cuisine alongside a true Sicilian host. You'll create crispy Panelle, flavourful Pasta alla Norma steeped in history, and Regina - typical cookies dusted with sesame that evoke nostalgia and family festivities. There are no written recipes here, just time-honoured gestures, lovingly shared secrets and the passion that sets Sicilian cuisine apart.

In an intimate group setting, you'll learn how to transform fresh, local ingredients into dishes that narrate a cultural story. With each step, punctuated by laughter, anecdotes and occasional tastings, you'll experience cooking as the Sicilians do - with heartfelt dedication at the stove and the joy of communal sharing.

Upon completion of your culinary creations, you'll gather around the table to savour the fruits of your labour. Complemented by a fine Sicilian wine and the ever-present warmth of island hospitality, this is a truly genuine and engaging experience. It's the ideal opportunity for those seeking to understand Sicily through its most authentic flavours.
