Instructions

Mix the flour and granulated sugar in a bowl and create the usual well in the middle. Then add the eggs and salt and pour in a small glass of Zucchi Lemon-Flavoured EVO Oil. Beat the eggs with a fork and start to mix thoroughly with the flour and the other ingredients.

Once the liquids have been absorbed, transfer the dough onto a pastry board and keep mixing with your hands to form a smooth, uniform loaf.

Divide the loaf into smaller portions to start rolling out the dough, with a pasta-roller or rolling-pin, until about 2-3 cm thick.

After rolling out all the dough, cut it into uniform rectangles with a serrated pastry-cutter wheel. Then make a cut in the middle of each rectangle and thread one end through to create this pastry’s traditional bow shape.

Pour the Zucchi groundnut oil into a frying-pan and wait for it to heat to the correct temperature. Then immerse the bows of dough in the oil, turning from time to time with a fork, until a perfect golden brown.

Drain with a slotted spoon and place on kitchen roll. Then serve with a dusting of icing sugar to taste.

LO CHEF: Zucchi

The recipes suggested by Zucchi promote the culture of oil, a real art which expresses all the values of Italian quality and passion.
