Pittule Salentine

The recipe

-1 kg of whole wheat flour

- 25 g of brewer’s yeast

- salt

- warm water

- extra virgin olive oil (for frying)

Mix the flour with yeast that has been dissolved in warm water, and add a little salt. The difficulty consists in thoroughly kneading the dough for a good period of time in order to get a very soft mixture, almost like a cream. Put the well kneaded mixture in a large container, cover it, and leave it to rise for at least 2 hours in a warm place.

The technique for creating pittule needs a little practice. Put a little bit of the mix in your left hand, close that hand to form a fist, and squeeze out little balls of dough through your thumb and index finger. With your right hand, take the little balls as they are squeezed out and put them into the hot frying oil. It seems easy enough, but when you try to do it... or simply use a spoon!

Dep fry the pittule until they are of a golden color.

Varieties

Stuffed pittule require adding boiled vegetables such as cauliflower, broccoli, lampascioni (edible grape hyacinth), celery, and salted anchovies (rinsed) or cooked codfish to the dough. Another recipe, “pizzaiola”, calls for onions, tomatoes, capers, black olives, salted anchovies, and hot red pepper. Some people also put boiled, grated potatoes in the flour mixture, in the proportion of 1/2 kg of potatoes for every kilo of flour, and others mix refined flour with the whole wheat flour (half and half).
HAPPY CHRITMAS!
BUON NATALE!

NEW YEAR MEAT PIE

Creatopita of Larissa
Materials (8 servings)
8 sheets of dough
2 kg of meat (1 calf, 1 sheep)
2 pounds of onions
1 glass of olive oil
1 glass of water sweet trahanas
5 grains of grated pepper

Boil the meat with salt, pepper and egg and half of the oil, making sure to leave some broth in the end and remove it from the pot. Cut off and melt the meat and keep it in a bowl. Onions, when finely chopped, cook them in a dry pot, turn them off with the broth and let them boil for half an hour. Add the meat then add the trachana and let them boil until the mixture absorbs the whole broth.
We spread the five leaves in the oiled baking dish, since these are also sprinkled with oil, and spread the filling. Then we straighten the remaining leaves in the same way and turn the edges of the leaves around the pan to form the cake. Sprinkle with some oil and some water and bake for about 70 minutes at 180 degrees.!!!!!!
