They characterize the local cuisine together with the equally famous fried Sicilian pastries with tuma cheese and anchovies and are extremely thin, delicate cookies made from a batter similar to that used for homemade ice cream wafers. In this almond version the almonds are roughly chopped and remain visible, giving aroma and crunch. Golden at the edges and paler in the center, these treats are pantry-style dry cookies, perfect to pair with tea, a sweet wine or to serve as a dessert at the end of a meal. A simple recipe with few ingredients and ancient gestures that tell the story of Zafferana Etnea pastry and the warmth of home kitchens. You'll see the homemade Zafferana tea cookies are easy to make and as good as the originals. Crispy and delicate, once tasted you won't be able to stop making them! Follow me in the kitchen \u2014 let's make the thin almond Zafferana cookies together.
