La Cucina Siciliana

Cultural depth:
Sicily, the "pantry" of Italian cuisine. Here, everything grows that cannot thrive in the north due to climate: exotic citrus fruits, numerous fresh vegetables, and even almond orchards are found in this region. Its culture and cuisine reflect influences from Greek, Roman, Spanish, and Arab/African traditions. Today, we highlight two mainstays of the region: arancini, rice balls shaped and fried from leftover rice, and caponata, an eggplant stew prepared according to each Sicilian's own recipe – we've crafted our own version as well. We'll also have a superb fennel salad and a swordfish steak with a "salmoriglio" dressing.
