Can you believe that an independent Sicily would rank seventh in the world for wine production? And Sicilians really love their desserts. The best-known Sicilian dessert wine is Marsala. This was once considered a great sweet wine and if you’re careful you may find a good one. Avoid Marsala cooking wines like the plague, even for cooking. Remember, in Sicily and elsewhere, most dessert wines are sold in half-liter bottles.
Panettone is a classic Italian Christmas cake. The Lombardy version is said to be the best and the hardest to make. To do it right, use baker’s yeast. Among the ingredients are egg yolks, melted butter, raisins (soak them and squeeze them dry), butter, and diced candied orange and lemon rinds. Italian bakeries should carry this delicacy at Christmas time. Suggested wine pairings include the red fizzy or sparkling Acqui/Brachetto d’Acqui DOCG from neighboring Piedmont (if you can find it), Asti, and Moscadello di Montalcino DOC.
Alternatively you can rent, this is actually the option most people go for, because as great as pig roasters are for a BBQ, cooking one does involve a little more prep than for your standard BBQ, so most tend to use them only for particular occasions. If renting you can usually go for the pig roaster on its own, where you do all the work at home, or at a little more expense you can get someone to turn up at your house with the roaster, do all the cooking and carving and then take everything away again, it’s up to you and your budget.
Cotognata (Quince Preserve) is a traditional Sicilian dessert, often made in the shape of a leaf or a fish. Don’t forget to add lemon and sugar. Recommended wine pairings include Moscato di Pantelleria DOC, Moscato di Siracusa DOC, and Moscato di Trani DOC.
Panzerotti ai due Formaggi (Cheese Panzerotti) are honey-coated pastry half moons whose secret is two special Italian cheeses, grated Pecorino Siciliano and a smaller amount of cubed Cacioavallo Silano. It also calls for flour, butter, orange and lemon rinds, and olive oil. Serve them hot with one of the above wines or a Sicilian Moscato di Noto DOC. You might look for the Planeta name on the label
