カンノーリ・シチリアーニ

Fried to order, so the shell shatters before the filling has a chance to soften it.

• Pastry tubes, fried dark and blistered.
• Ricotta, whipped smooth with sugar.
• Pistachio, crushed, scattered over the ends.
• Powdered sugar, dusted at the pass.

The shell stays crisp only for a few minutes, which is why these are filled when you order them and not before. Sicilian in shape and in spirit, the ricotta kept light rather than heavy, the pistachio doing the work a candied peel would do elsewhere. Sweet, but not so sweet that you lose the tang of the cheese. Contains: dairy, nuts.
