Description
The Brutti Buoni 'Ugly but Good' are biscuits based on chopped almonds, sugar, free-range egg whites.
They are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, and have always been part of the historic desserts at our biscuit factory.
The broken almonds and the egg white rest and mix for a few hours, before meeting the other ingredients (flour and sugar), become "Ugly but good" and go in the oven.
Recommended pairing:
- Muffato or other liquor wines, or with coffee. -
History
The Brutti Buoni have been present in our Bottega since 1910 or there abouts... thanks to the 'know-how' of the aunt Italia Ciampolini.
In fact, they were created from the need to reuse 'leftover' ingredients from other recipes: broken almonds, because in Prato biscuits we only use whole almonds, and the egg white that is a 'leftover' from the Mantovana Cake recipe, which requires more yolks than egg whites. -
