Sicilian Cooking Class on Fresh Pasta in Catania
Overview
LaPasta Fresca Siciliana: from Flour to Tasting
Pasta is the undisputed queen of Italian cuisine: what better way to bring with you an authentic memory of Italy than by learning to prepare it with your own hands?
In our cooking workshop, the chef will guide you step by step in the preparation of fresh pasta, from raw material to cooking and dressing.

In the second part you will discover how to prepare some of the tastiest seasonings of the tradition: Ragù, Pasta alla Norma and Sicilian Pesto.

An experience of about 2 - 3 hours, fun, authentic and deliciously Italian!
