Description

The gastronomic tour par excellence in the name of "Slow Food" on the Sicani Mountains focuses on Cammarata and San Giovanni Gemini area. An apotheosis for the taste buds to find high quality products such as the cheese "Pecorino D.O.P." has been awarded several times as the best in Sicily. Other milk derivatives such as mozzarella and ricotta have also received awards. In 2021, yogurt, another dairy product, was named one of the best in Italy by the famous Italian leader in Eno gastronomy "Gambero Rosso". We also learn about the flour derivatives (bread, cookies, pasta) made from old grains (Tumminia, Russello, Perciasacchi). Another excellence is the olive oil, which has been recognized as the "best extra virgin olive oil in the world", as well as the wine by a local winery is an award-winning in Brussels, which has been selected several times as the "wine of the Pope". Finally, the meat of sheep and cattle, which thanks to the natural territory on organic land, rich in plants and aromatic herbs, gives animals the opportunity to graze there. The day takes place entirely in Cammarata and in San Giovanni Gemini which are known in the region as "the mountain of excellence", precisely because they have an abundance of high-quality products and raw materials in the heart of Sicily. After a stroll through the historic centre, we will meet a chef of a typical Sicilian trattoria and together we visit the local market and do some shopping. Then we put on “u fadali” (the apron) and now we can roll up our sleeves and put our hands in the dough. An unforgettable experience for those who really want to know what the area in the Sicilian hinterland really offers. We're not done with the day yet. Another sweet excellency awaits in the afternoon, we will discover it together.
