Sweets and Fruit
For dough: 4 ¾ cups flour
5 ½ tablespoons butter
½ cup granulated sugar
3 ½ tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon baking soda
5 eggs
¼ teaspoon powdered anise
For sauce: 1 1/3 cups honey
½ cup granulated sugar
¾ ounce colored sprinkles
½ cup candied orange
½ cup candied yellow pumpkin
¼ teaspoon anise seeds
6 cups peanut oil for frying








Wine pairing
Small sweet pearls that stick together to create a delight for the palate. We recommend a white passito wine that is more or less deep amber in color, delicate, with hints of apricot jam, ripe yellow fruit, honey and vanilla that is sweet, persistent and intense.

Chef's Tip
The dough must be left to stand covered with a cloth and protected from air currents. The small rolls must be kneaded without using flour. The honey must be very hot when the struffoli are added to it, remembering to stir them gently with a wooden spoon.
