Love Sicilian Cooking
What you will learn
A full Sicilian Menu, from starter to dessert, based on Katia's family recipes.
How you will learn it
We run relaxed hands-on cooking classes to make sure you have fun while experimenting with Sicilian food.
Tasting the food
After the cooking class we sit around the table to enjoy the food we prepared with a glass of Sicilian wine.
The lesson
All classes are taught in English and/or Italian, and start with a short introduction to Sicilian food history and traditions.
The hands-on lessons last about 3 hours with a small break in the middle to sit down and relax outside on the terrace overlooking San Giorgio with a drink of wine or coffee.
At the end of the session, we sit down and enjoy our meal paired to Sicilian wine, enjoying the breathtaking view of Modica's Saint George cathedral.
The Menu
We prepare a three courses Sicilian meal including "primo", "secondo", dessert and a fresh salad.
We keep the menu very seasonal and change the recipes we propose often, therefore for specific requests please get in touch via email.
For special needs, like gluten or lactose-free menus get in touch with us via email.
Things to know
The loveSicily Cookery School is located right in the centre of the beautiful city of Modica - a Unesco World Heritage site in South-Eastern Sicily with a rich culinary tradition and wonderful baroque architecture.
The property has been restored to its original 1930s feel, when Katia's grandparents bought it, but the building dates back to the 17th century. It has an elegant living space and a spacious kitchen, both with domed ceilings and direct access to the terrace, which offers spectacular views of Modica's baroque San Giorgio Cathedral.
Please note that Modica develops up the slopes of a valley and steps are hard to avoid. The school is located right in the centre of Modica, some 80 steps up from the 'corso' crossing the historical centre. If you feel that this may be a concern please get in touch for advice. LINK
