FRIED CREAM or CREMINI, typical Marche recipe as dessert or appetizer, easy to prepare, crunchy on the outside and soft inside.
I’ve always wanted to make fried cream at least to understand its flavor, why it was so praised, well, because it’s truly delicious, you have to try it.
Fried cream was born from the need to use up leftover custard, it is left to solidify, cut into pieces, breaded, and fried.
A typical dessert consumed at Christmas and Carnival, every fried thing counts.
Nothing simpler but so tasty and I would say rather caloric, a dessert that can also be served as an appetizer during the Christmas period or at Carnival.
