Sicilian Cuisine

The cuisine of Sicily is uniquely different from any other Italian region, strongly influenced by it's many conquerors. Its cooking is an adventure in history: the island has been home to Greeks, Romans, Normans, Bourbons, and Arabs over the centuries, and its cooking speaks of this complicated history of invasions and occupations, as well as the fresh flavours of the land and the bounty of the sea.   Sicilian cooking is characterized by its fanciful juxtaposition of sweet and sour flavours, its abundant use of fragrant herbs, its succulent seafood, its rich desserts, and its luscious citrus fruit. Sicilian cuisine has very ancient roots, dating back to the period of the Norman occupation; these roots still influence contemporary cooking. Today's cuisine is an amazing mosaic reflecting every foreign invasion that took place over the years, especially by the Arabs. Each city, and each neighbourhood, has its own distinctive cuisine, based on what the territory has traditionally had to offer; eggplant from Palermo, tuna from the Egadi Islands, capers from Pantelleria and oranges from throughout the region.
