We made pizzas with three different types of dough, including one with ancient Sicilian grains, which was super cool. The pizzas we made, like Pizza alla Norma and Pistachio Pizza, were delicious. Mariella was really welcoming and made the whole process fun and easy to follow. This class was a fantastic way to spend an evening, I highly recommend it!

Mariella was not only knowledgeable about the local ingredients and their history but also incredibly passionate about Sicilian cuisine. The market tour itself was a feast for the senses, with her explaining the significance of each ingredient we encountered. The culinary class that followed was the highlight of the day. We learned how to prepare traditional Sicilian dishes from scratch, using the ingredients we had just purchased at the market. The best part was sitting down together to enjoy the meal we had prepared, accompanied by local wine and good conversation. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Catania who wants to explore the local food scene in a meaningful way.

Descrizione
Mariella House
My name is Mariella, I was born and raised in Catania, and after about 35 years of being self-employed in the confectionery and gift sector, I felt the need to dedicate myself to my family and to cooking. So why not share my talent with the people who visit and love my land?
I will host you in my home to let you taste Sicilian cuisine, an expression of art connected to the historical, cultural, and religious events that have taken place over the centuries on this extraordinary island. From the Greeks - with their passion for fish, olives, and pistachios - to the Romans - with their cultivation of wheat and grapes, which led us to our beloved pasta and our delicious wines - passing through the couscous introduced by the Arabs, gastronomy has always been part of the identity of the Sicilians. That is why I will take you to my kitchen, cozy and with a view of the sea, to give you an experience that you will keep in your mind and I hope in your heart.
My house is located in a spot within easy walking distance of the main squares in the historic center. We will cook together first courses such as linguine with mussels or spaghetti with cuttlefish or pappardelle with clams or pasta alla norma, aubergine parmigiana or caponata and then a dessert, all accompanied by a good Sicilian wine! The dishes we will prepare will depend on the season and what the market offers, using only fresh produce. The menu will include a main course of pasta (or a second course) and a dessert. During the preparation, if you wish, you will be able to take notes and photos, and at the end bring the recipe for the main dish prepared together. The experience will be offered and supported in English.
