Sicily Aulas de Culinária

We had a great time creating a delicious meal learning how to make pasta from scratch and then the sauces that were amazing! The steps to follow were simple enough that we will be able to make these dishes at home for our friends. I can say that we had a great time and Francesca made it so enjoyable! The tiramisu was so, so good! It is the best dessert ever! I really recommend this class!

The best part was how well the food turned out so great! We learned how to make a real meal that we could repeat at home and impress our friends. We had such a fun time! I would do this again I just hope we meet such nice people to cook with! Francesca is the best teacher. I look forward to getting the recipes to use later!!

We were warmly greeted by Vincensio and his mother, Accursia into their lovely home. It was just what you imagined of a beautiful, cozy Italian kitchen well prepared for the class. Ours was a family class which was extra fun and they accommodated us so well. We learned to mix the dough, and make different shapes of pasta. It was all done with so many of their own home grown products. I would highly recommend this class and it was one of our highlights of our trip to Sicily.

We were made to feel very welcome and the whole experience was very relaxed. We got to make a good variety of food including a starter, mains and desert. It was a hands on course. The location was lovely with a beautiful balcony view over the beach and sea. I would definitely recommend this cooking course.

We made fresh pasta, Nice sauce, appetizer and dessert. We had a Fun afternoon

From the time we arrived until the time we left our entire experience with Mariella was amazing. She tailored the menu for dinner to our wants and was very gracious when we were delayed a day due to Mt Etna erupting, to reschedule with us for the following day. She was so sweet and included all of us in the experience. She encouraged everyone to try the techniques she was demonstrating and the food we created together was out of this world. There was so much food! I would highly recommend enjoying a cooking class with Mariella! She was the absolute best!

Wow, wow, wow!!! My family will treasure this experience forever and always. The host family is full of soul and every expression us full of heart. They truly put the EXTRA in extraordinary. We also met travelers from around the world in our group and became fast friends with similar interests. It was a whole day and we left with lasting memories and full hearts 💞 You won't regret this or ever encounter a similar experience as it can not be duplicated by anyone anywhere.

This day went beyond our expectations. I was traveling with 6other family members. There were about 20 in our group Rather than a regular cooking class in a kitchen, this is an immersive garden-to -able cultural experience. Carlo and Jess share their family traditions in a way that made the experience very special for everyone and people from all over the world were sharing their own cultural 'flavors.'. We LOVED it!! And, oh THE FOOD!! The food was amazing!! It was a feast! I originally bought tickets for 5 of us because I am a Celiac and a sister is a gluten-free vegan. But while making arrangements, Carlo heard that, he said "No! You have to be together! We can take care of gluten allergies and vegan diets.". We were both SO happy we went. We ate really well and were overwhelmed by their hospitality and delicious meal. This is a must-do!!

This was not just a cooking class or a farm-to-table workshop, it was a very real and warm experience. Carlo and Jessy express their love for Sicilian traditions - it warms your heart. To be part of the harvesting, cooking and the traditional game was a true honor! If you’re on the island, you should definitely book with Carlo and Jessy!

Food was delicious. Michael was very open with his techniques and reasons for doing things a certain way. I definitely recommend Michael to you.

I wish I could give this experience 10 Stars!! Carlo and his charming wife, Jesse, are perfect hosts. This is not just a "farm-to-table" experience: it's about hard work, turning a dream into a reality, food, family, and fun--and, most importantly, love. We told stories, sang songs, laughed, and at times, even cried. Carlo described the archeological history of the site and the strong connections to the Sicilian culture, Jesse described how the liturgical calendar is linked to the crop harvest while picking sprigs of fennel. Their children hand-made pasta sheets that we formed into garden-fresh ravioli!! We ended the hot day drinking wine and diving into a cold river. It was simply unbelievable and unforgettable.

Se você estiver na Sicília e não aproveitar essa experiência super acessível, estará perdendo uma grande oportunidade. Foi uma aula de preparo de massa muito informativa, em um ambiente descontraído e divertido, numa casa encantadora. Gostei tanto que consideraria fazer de novo só para praticar mais!

This was so much fun! Accursia and her son Vincensio were welcoming, knowledgeable, and prepared. From start to finish, we were taught about the pasta and how to make it. We created sevveral different pasta shapes (6 total), and learned about a variety of edible flowers and herbs to include. Everything we used was grown on their property and we were also treated to home grown fruits, wine, and breads. The experience was amazing and we really enjoyed it!❤️😊

If you want an experience where they do everything for you this is not the one to choose. This is truly an Italian family home and kitchen where you will make several courses from fresh pasta and veggies to fish and dessert. The hosts are incredibly friendly and clearly passionate about their craft and making a comfortable but authentic atmosphere. When gramma arrives to help it’s the sweetest thing. She doesn’t speak a lick of English but will encourage and help throughout the day. I definitely recommend this over a more commercial larger experience where they want to take you to a tiny market and charging more. We had a very small group of seven people, and it was perfect. The food was outstanding and we left full and satisfied. The location is quite quaint as it’s right on the waterfront overlooking the beach.
