Description
Meet one of Southern Italy’s most revered street foods, the arancina or rice ball. The Arabs introduced or reintroduced rice to Sicily in the 10th century and arancini (rice balls) are one of many Southern Italian foods inspired by Arab agriculture and cuisine. While they are Sicilian in origin, they have become popular throughout Southern Italy and no Neapolitan pizzeria would consider not offering these delectable deep-fried balls of rice and cheese on their menu. In this hands-on conversation, learn how to prepare this delicious snack. Led by food historian, sommelier and home cook Gina Tringali, this interactive lesson will have you making arancini like an expert.
Price includes class and one adult admission to the Painters of Pompeii exhibition.
