Taralli Recipe (Italian Pretzels)

Taralli is an old Italian recipe, originally from the southern region of Puglia. I saw this recipe on TV and knew I had to try it.

Taralli are quite easy to make. It’s all about a simple, no knead, unleavened dough, with few ingredients: flour, extra-virgin olive oil, white wine, and salt.

The dough can be flavored with fennel, thyme, caraway or any other seeds you like. I have chosen my favorite: caraway.

These versatile Italian snacks are an excellent addition to an aperitivo and can be savored on their own or accompanied by a board of cheese and olives and a glass of local red wine
