Square Votive Candle Holders

Sweet Dreams "on the Fogasa gradele" Hasten

From country to country painting cake is a short step! This morning we lit the fireplace and I had the wish to prepare this cake.

More precisely it is a sweet cake typical of the area of \u200b\u200bLake Garda, Verona side.

Its main ingredient is extra virgin olive oil that I come from and certainly do not lack is of good quality.

do not know the precise origins but "on the Fogasa gradele" or focaccia on the grill (cooked on the grill) is very popular in my part and certainly is a sweet coming from the countryside and poverty.

I learned it from my mom, which I always told the grandmother who cooked this cake for a table with ten young brothers and sisters that if plucked from the hands ...

And 'good food alone or "puciata" in milk.

But now it's time to show you the recipe and steps:

1

join a bowl A 500 gr. white flour, a handful of corn flour, a pinch of salt, 2 tablespoons sugar, one packet of yeast.

2

Mix all and add 1 / 2 cup milk (stirring) and then olive oil just enough to make a soft dough

Comincio quindi ad impastare usando le mani e verso il composto sull’asse di lavoro

Ora divido l’impasto in uguali porzioni e comincio a stenderne una con il mattarello

... I recommend with broken hands, no knives and blades for precise cuts!

... I have brought you some mouth watering? and then go ahead, try it yourself, you can also cook on the hotplate, but it is essential ... the olive oil!!

I'm lucky because that's what we produce with our trees, but by the good oil is around!

This is a work done in six hands ... oops ... I would say 5

mine have kneaded, including my husband cooked and survivor of the ... My son (the other one because it is plastered with the arm !!!!) he took the photos. I thank the collaboration and I wish you good Sunday ...
