Private Tour: Sicilian Flavors at the Farm - Cooking Class near Taormina from Taormina with a Vintage Car
From the moment a classic vintage car arrives for hotel pickup in Taormina, this private culinary experience sets itself apart. The scenic drive through the Sicilian countryside leads to a working farm near Randazzo, nestled at the foot of majestic Mount Etna. The experience opens with a guided extra virgin olive oil tasting straight from the source, a rich, sensory introduction to the island's agricultural soul. Guests then roll up their sleeves for a hands-on cooking class, mastering two Sicilian staples: hand-rolled macaroni crafted using the centuries-old ferretto technique and classic cannoli, from shaping the crisp shells to whipping up the fresh ricotta filling from scratch. The session culminates in a relaxed, family-style lunch of Maccheroni alla Norma and cannoli with sweet ricotta, paired with Etna wine. This is Sicilian hospitality at its most authentic.
