A traditional and typical type of biscuits in Tuscany to be dipped in sweet Vinsanto wine (they are made with flour, eggs, almonds, orange zest, brown sugar)
My Grandma Crostata:
a marvelous cake with apricot marmelade and apples (flour, brown sugar, butter, eggs, powder yeast, orange zest, vanilla scent, apricot marmelade and fresh apples) .
In this online experience you'll learn to bake two Italian sweets.
First we'll start with the recipe of my Grandma Crostata.
We'll prepare the base of the cake, kneading flour, butter, eggs, sugar, yeast and orange zest) then we'll lay the marmelade and apples and bake it.
While the Crostata is baking we'll prepare the typical biscuits of Tuscany, Cantucci, kneading all the ingredients with almonds.
During the time of the baking I'll reveal all the secrets about Italian coffee and all the different types you can find in Italy.
Hi! My name is Beatrice but everybody calls me Bea! I'm an Italian tour guide and I am a real foody, as many Italian people I fell in love with food and cooking as soon as I could keep a fork in my hand! I love meeting people from everywhere in the world and sharing all the recipes my Grandma taught me!
