SICILIAN STREET FOOD (GF)

Service Description

Crossroad in the Mediterranean, Sicily's cuisine has enjoyed rich gifts from Greeks, Romans, Byzantines, Arabs and more. Two famous street foods and a sweet finish make for a surprising and delicious evening of interesting ingredients & techniques. Classic Chickpea Fritters - using chickpea flour, these crispy GF treats are served between slices of sesame seed bread on the streets of Palermo. They make a great appetizer or snack. Caponatina -- diced vegetables cooked "agrodolce" ( sweet/sour) with tomato, olives and capers. Arancini – saffron-infused rice balls stuffed with ragu ( or vegetarian if desired), rolled in breadcrumbs and deep fried to look like “little oranges”. Perfectly adaptable as hors d’oeuvres for your next gathering. BYOB! Suggested Pairings: Sicilian Nero d'Avola, Sparkling Rosé, blonde beer or whatever your favorite beverage for sipping and dinner may be.
