Best 4 Taralli Dolci Di Pasqua Recipes

ITALIAN EASTER COOKIES (TARALLI DOLCI DI PASQUA)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Adjust the racks to the upper and lower thirds of the oven. Line two rimmed baking sheets with parchment and set aside.
• In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, sugar, butter, vanilla, lemon zest and lemon juice. Add the wet ingredients to the flour mixture and stir with a rubber spatula to combine into a shaggy dough. Turn the mixture onto a lightly flour surface and knead 3 or 4 times to bring together into a smooth dough. Cut the dough into 12 equal pieces. Roll each piece into a 5 inch rope. Form each rope into a circle and place 6 cookies on each of the prepared baking sheets. Bake until the cookies are puffed and deep golden brown, about 10 to 15 minutes. Cool on the trays for 10 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool completely.
• In a medium bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, water, lemon juice and lemon zest until smooth. Spoon the glaze over the cooled cookies, and add sprinkles if desired. Allow the glaze to harden, and serve.

AUTHENTIC TARALLI

Steps:

• Combine flour, 1/4 teaspoon salt, oil, and wine in a stand mixer. Mix ingredients using the paddle attachment until a ball forms. Switch to the dough hook and knead dough for 10 minutes.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Bring a large pot of water to boil over high heat and add the remaining salt. Spread a large, clean cloth out on a counter or table.
• Pinch off a walnut-sized piece of dough once kneading has finished. Roll dough piece into a snake about 2 1/2 inches long. Form a tear drop shape, lightly pressing the two ends together to seal them into a ring. Repeat with remaining dough.
• Turn down the boiling water to a low boil. Drop taralli into the water a few at a time. Do not stir; they will sink at first, then begin to float. Remove floating taralli with a slotted spoon. Place them on the clean cloth and continue until all the taralli have boiled and are drained on the cloth. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Bake in the preheated oven until taralli are golden and firm on the outside, but still soft on the inside, about 40 minutes. Cool completely and rest for at least 1 hour before serving. Wrap with a clean cloth or place in a paper bag; store at room temperature for up to 1 week.
