Arancini are known throughout the world as “rice ball.” This Sicilian icon of street food is made from simple ingredients: rice ball that are stuffed with a filling, then breaded and fried. The secret to success is in the proportions and a few techniques. You will learn it all in this class and bring some Arancini home to enjoy!

Join Adele for the Alfresco dining series that will have you thinking of picnics by the lake and eating outside with friends as warm temperatures and sunny days start to arrive. Join us for one or all of this series of Italian street food classes. Adele will teach you how to make authentic dishes from the country of her ancestors.
