Cenci
Cenci
This is one of those Tuscan typical sweets of this season. Try them, it's a "granny's recipe"!
Ingredients (For
6 people)
White flour:
300 g, Sugar: 50 g, 2 eggs, Butter: 30 g, Rum
or brandy or vinsanto (sweet white raisin wine), Orange
or lemon peel, Some salt, Vanilla sugar Seed,
oil
Work flour
and eggs, sugar, melted butter, liqueur,
a teaspoon of orange or lemon peel and a pinch of salt
into dough. Knead well, until you will get a smooth dough, make
a ball of it and keep it one hour in a cool place, to let it leaven.
Make a rather thin sheet of dough with the rolling pin and cut it
in big slips, then in irregular pieces or in lozenges, as you prefer.
So, fry them in a lot of hot oil. As they are ready put "cenci"
on a sheet of paper and sprinkle icing or vanilla sugar on
them.
