Precedella

Ingredients

• 5 egg yolks
• 3/4c. sugar
• 1/4c. sweet white wine
• 1/2tsp. ground fennel seed or aniseed
• 1/2tsp. ground cinnamon
• 1/4tsp. salt
• 2c. flour

Method

Preheat oven to 180C (350F). Beat the egg yolks and sugar together until thick and pale, and then beat in the wine. Stir in all the dry ingredients. The dough will be fairly sticky. Roll the dough into "snakes" a little less than a centimetre wide and curl them into pretzel shapes. Place on silicone paper or well-greased baking sheets and bake 10-15 minutes or until slightly browned.
