Christmas in Abruzzo isn’t just a time of baking biscuits and cookies, they’re are also some spectacular feel good delicious deep fried goodies that are guaranteed to see off icy bora and mistral blasts
biscuits
Blackberries, arhhh such an easy catapult back to childhood, those fat juicy blackberries being such easy low-level pickings for any age at any time
Mostaccioli… delicious Italian Christmas cookies that can use up half drunk bottles of Montepulciano d’Abruzzo left over from the night before
How do you describe sfogliatelle beyond perhaps as one of Abruzzo’s and Southern Italy’s favourite indulgences?
Fever, February, Fishbones & Fenugreek are not something that grab you as having a lot in common today I learnt otherwise
