Once absent in the region, new fruits, nuts, vegetables, and grains are now familiar favorites on the island and contribute to the exquisite dishes present today.
From quaint fishing villages to bustling cities and ancient towns, being the most conquered island in the world, Sicily is truly one of the most fascinating and diverse places you’ll find on planet earth! The foods we covered in this episode we only begin to scratch the surface of the truly impressive variety of Sicilian dishes, snacks, sweets, and treats that are available on the island, there are tons more left to be enjoyed so be sure to try and taste as many as you can on your journey through Sicily!

    Sicily didn't "played host", it was invaded and colonized... :D That's how it got all those cultural influences. I would skip the brioche, I never understood why anyone would want to eat it with a granita or gelato. Arancini are a must try, but avoid the ones sold in the beach or along the trains, buy them in shops.
