The history of Sicily is full of historical events, dominations and cultural traditions which for millennia have followed one another and have contributed to build the identity of the island and of its inhabitants.

An identity which has been inevitably transferred in the gastronomic culture as well and which has led to the birth of countless dishes which have become excellence and symbols of Sicily in the world. Sicilian cooking is the result of Sicilian history: a cuisine rich in recipes, in imports of products and customs, in mixes of ingredients, of aromas and spices coming from the East and the West of the world.
