Priscila took me on a market + cook tour to make risotto with prawns. It was hugely educational and fun! We started in the traditional markets of Palermo where we explored fresh seasonal ingredients. Priscila shared her knowledge of how to pick the best produce, seafood, which vendors are best, and in-and-outs of market-shopping that you otherwise wouldn't figure out yourself. It was a customized experience, we stopped for some artichoke fritters, coffee/freshly-squeezed juice and wild strawberries (yum!). Cooking the meal was very fun, I got to play with unique ingredients like saffron and local red prawns. I learned some technical skills and Priscila was very knowledgeable in answering all my questions. And in the end we had an absolutely delicious plate of risotto with the sweetest, freshest prawns. For it was so rewarding going through the journey of shopping for fresh, beautiful ingredients to cooking the final product. As a foodie traveller you often pass by the food markets, envious of the locals who are able to shop there and convert the ingredients into tasty home-made meals. This is especially true in Sicily, a region with one of the world's most diverse, wide-ranging and tasty ingredients. I'm really glad I took Priscila's tour to satisfy my itch, and I highly recommend the tour to others!

The experience with Priscila was one of my best ones! I did this experience with my mom, we started the experience with the mercato di Ballarò tour where thanks to her we getting know the seasonal and local sicilian products, super fresh ones, I really loved this :) We had the pleasure to meet the vendors and even tasting the pistachio products, everyone in Sicily is so friendly! We also bought seafood and super fresh shrimps for making our pistachio cream and shrimp pasta. While we where cooking together, Priscila gave us a lot of tips and tricks about the sicilian food, she showed her recepy and of course we ate the pasta, was sooo sooo delicious :) Everything was so amazing and we had a lot of fun with her. Thanks Priscila! :)
