In Sicily, there are local versions of pizza and focaccia that differ from traditional pizza in both dough and toppings used. You'll discover all the secrets to prepare an authentic Palermo-style sfincione, a delicious Messina focaccia, and a Catanese scacciata. In addition to preparing these recipes, you will learn hidden secrets and anecdotes about their history. At the end of the preparation, you can taste the pizzas while enjoying them with a great wine or ice-cold beer, as tradition dictates.
Menu: Sfincione (Sicilian-style pizza with onion and tomato sauce), Focaccia Messinese (Sicilian-style focaccia with escarole), Scacciata catanese (Sicilian-style filled pizza with vegetables and cheese).

Cesarina from 2022Location: Palermo Languages: English, Italian, Spanish, French"I was passionate about cooking and food since I was a child, accomplices grandmother who loved to cook and the whole family who loves to eat well. I therefore decided to pursue a university career in the field of gastronomy. I have faced a multidisciplinary and holistic path that has treated the world of food at 360 o'clock. I love cooking for my family and for others, starting from the choice of recipes and the selection of ingredients. I like to experiment and I'm particularly passionate about pastry and leavened foods. I do research on ancient cookbooks and asking around, especially older ladies, their family recipes. Sicily, like all Italy, has an invaluable gastronomic heritage, whose recipes and preparations vary from house to house, not only between cities and provinces. This gives the palate the opportunity to enjoy the same traditional dishes with different ingredients, techniques and stories."
