Petralia Sottania / Pizza in the pearl of the Madonie at Il Castello
Say goodbye to the sea for now. We are at the 5th stop of our trip in Sicily and we drove for some kilometers towards a small mountain range called Madonie.
In this part of Sicily there is a high concentration of hidden gems and extraordinary ingredients.
This is the case, for example, of Polizzi Generosa and its hazelnuts or Castelbuono and its manna, a sugary sap produced by a tree - the South European Flowering Ash -, wonderfully brought to the kitchen tables by Fiasconaro, a world known family owned business who produces panettone and uses manna in the making of mannetto and ice cream.
