Cooking Pasta Alla Norma | Food Travels to Sicily

Come with me to the Ballarò market. In this video, we’re buying ingredients for Pasta Alla Norma.The history of Sicily is complicated - they’ve been conquered and ruled over by many. But the joy of a market, like you’ll see in this week’s Italy video, is that the hardships of that history is smothered over with life and food and community.

A market is a snapshot of a culture in that moment, regardless of its past. Being in this old of a market with our small group of friends was like witnessing history and the future all at once.Come visit the market, and enjoy some time in the kitchen making Pasta Alla Norma, right here.

Salute,Shaye
