LA BURTLEINA (la bortellina)

Recipes

The recipe for burtleina consists of simple ingredients, but requires skill and experience to obtain a dough of the right consistency.

It is found throughout the province, but beware you may not know that … the same name is used for different companions! In Bettola, bortellina is in fact more similar to gnocco fritto.

To be accompanied by salami and cheese strictly from the territory!
