Carnival without castagnole is not Carnival: these fluffy fried balls appeal to young and old alike, and they are also very simple to prepare. They are typical fried Carnival treats, beloved throughout Italy for their round shape, fluffy texture and enveloping taste. Fragrant on the outside and soft on the inside, castagnole are perfect accompanied by a glass of sweet wine.
Today we bring you a recipe for spoon castagnole (faster to make as the dough does not have to be kneaded and rested, but scooped up with a spoon and poured directly into hot oil) without butter (also suitable for lactose intolerant people).
