Sicilian Festa by Erica Foffi

Celebrate the colours and flavours of Sicily with three dishes that capture the island’s rich culinary heritage. This is food full of sunshine and tradition — recipes that have travelled through generations and still bring people together around the table.

In this hands-on class, you’ll prepare:

Caponata
The classic Sicilian sweet-and-sour eggplant dish with celery, capers, and vinegar, a perfect balance of bold flavours.

Arancini
Golden fried rice balls with ragù, mozzarella, and seasonal fillings — the street food royalty of Sicily. (Vegetarian variation available)

Cannoli
Crisp pastry shells filled with sweet ricotta cream and decorated with candied fruit or chocolate. Learn how to make an amazing ricotta cream and decorate your cannoli.

Participants will work in pairs and small groups, and leave with recipes, confidence, and a little piece of Sicily in their hearts.

Erica Foffi was born and raised in Rome, where cooking was part of daily life, a way to connect, celebrate, and show love. After moving to Toronto, she began inviting friends into her kitchen to share the traditional dishes she grew up with. What started around her table soon became a way to teach others about the richness of Italian home cooking and the joy of gathering together around good food.

Her classes are hands-on, welcoming, and rooted in tradition. Erica focuses on simple, honest food made with care, from street food classics to handmade pastas, and on creating a relaxed space where anyone can feel confident and inspired in the kitchen.
