At the same time, with the small village of Zafferana Etnea<\/strong> as our backdrop, treat yourself to a weekend of apples, mushrooms, honey and chestnuts.<\/p>\n

You know it’s Autumn when you smell mushrooms (here’s where to taste them on the island<\/a>). The star of Capizzi<\/strong>, in the province of Messina<\/a>,<\/a> is the Nebrodi<\/a> truffle but the area’s also famous for the Nebrodi poricini mushrooms<\/strong>, the Capizzi provola<\/strong>, cheeses, buffalo mozzarella, typical desserts like \u2018u cavatieddu atturratu<\/em> from Cerami <\/strong>and various black pork cured meats from Nebrodi.<\/p>\n

And there’s nothing like getting lost in Petralia Sottana<\/strong> (in the province of Palermo<\/a>), in the heart of the Madonie<\/a>, with fried guastedda<\/em> and Petralese risu niru<\/em>! There are also vegetable soups<\/strong> and fried cardoons<\/a>, as well as meat sauces and fresh pasta.<\/p>\n

In November<\/strong>, we remember our departed loved ones with sweetness: Martorana fruit<\/a>, the bright-coloured, fruit-shaped almond pastry desserts, which brighten up the windows of the best Sicilian pastry shops all year round.<\/p>\n

They’re all washed down with excellent wine<\/a> – Sicilian CDO<\/strong>, of course – or with the finest liqueurs<\/a> like Pantelleria passito<\/a>, zibibbo, limoncello, marsala, amaro agli agrumi (an excellent digestive) and the delicious rosoli, the perfect accompaniment with “rame di Napoli”, “ossa dei morti” or the royal Cassata Siciliana<\/a>!<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":38552,"template":"","categories":[1922,1928,1924],"luogo":[2945,2963,2965,2958,2947],"stagione":[1874],"class_list":["post-38570","sapore","type-sapore","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-in-evidenza-hp-en","category-territorio-en","category-sapori-en","luogo-agrigento","luogo-catania","luogo-enna","luogo-messina","luogo-palermo","stagione-autumn"],"acf":{"galleria":false,"paragrafo_1":"

After a walk in the open air in the mountain paths in the countryside or in one of the picturesqueSicilian villages<\/a> or the most beautiful in Italy<\/strong>, don’t miss these little samples that embody the essence of a Sicilian autumn<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The unique flavour of the San Cono prickly pears<\/strong> from the province of Catania<\/a> are especially sought after. Likewise, in Roccapalumba<\/strong>, near Palermo<\/a> and Santa Margherita Belice<\/strong>, in the province of Agrigento<\/a>, in<\/a> October <\/strong>you’ll find prickly pear<\/a> sweets and whole menus based on this tasty fruit.<\/p>\n

A sort of chutney<\/strong> is made from the prickly pears: taste it when it’s still steaming on the typical terracotta briquettes in Gagliano Castelferrato<\/strong>, in the province of Enna<\/a>, and in Militello in Val di Catania<\/a>.<\/p>\n","titolo_paragrafo_1":"Detail","sottotitolo":"","localizzazione":"
