Overview

What's better than a cooking class to learn how to prepare Sicilian Pizza and Cannoli just a few steps from the Sea of Taormina and Naxos?

Together with the "Family Siciliano" you will learn to use fresh and local ingredients, which enhance the flavor of each dish, and make Italy and Sicily famous throughout the world.
With Chef Mimmo you will learn the art of preparing Pizza and typical "Bruschetta" with local products: Pachino cherry tomatoes, basil, oregano and olive oil.
With the father Siciliano, a great local pastry Chef, you will create the famous Cannoli, learning the secrets of preparing the perfect wafer and cream that make Cannoli the most famous Sicilian dessert in the world.
Furthermore, you will learn how to make "Angel Wings", typical traditional sweets which in Sicilian are called "Chiacchiere", and which are popular sweets of the Carnival period.
And then everyone to the table, facing the Mediterranean Sea, to enjoy your creations accompanied by a tasting of Limoncello.

What To Expect

Appointment in Taormina, Piazza San Antonio Abate (Arch of “Porta Catania”) at 06:00 pm. Transfer to the sea (included in the price), to "Ahoy Bistró Siciliano". Together with Chef Mimmo you will prepare the dough for the Pizza and the wholemeal flour dough for the bread. While waiting for the Pizza dough to rise, you will have fun preparing the typical "Sicilian Bruschette". With the father Siciliano, a great local pastry Chef, you will learn the art of preparing Cannolo, the typical Sicilian dessert. You will learn how to prepare the crispy wafer, kneading with your hands and frying the dough in the particular shape. You will also learn how to prepare the traditional cream to fill the Cannoli. When the Pizza dough has risen, you will roll out the dough, choose the toppings and personally bake the Pizza in the oven. In addition to Pizza and Cannoli, the pastry Chef will teach you how to make the typical "Angel Wings" biscuits which in Sicily are called "Chiacchiere" and which are popular of the Carnival period.
And then you can sit with the view of the Mediterranean Sea, enjoying your Sicilian Pizza and Cannolo creations with a glass of Limoncello to make your holiday original and unforgettable. At the end customers will be taken back to the center of Taormina.
