Naples - Being a pastry lover, I had heard about the ubiquitous
Neapolatin pastry in Naples called Sfogliatelle.
And once I tried I
bite, that's the only word you need to know when traveling in Naples. Well,
pizza as well.
Sfogliatelle has a delicate, crunchy pastry shell shaped
like a large clam. The filling is a sweetened ricotta cheese.
Layers of deliciousness! |
As soon as I ate one
for breakfast, I immediately was wondering how to create that type of layered
pastry shell, which reminded me of thin apple slices created by a hand crank
device.
Well, if you are
traveling in Naples, all you need to know is the word: Sfogliatelle.
Here are several Neapolatin
pastry shops recommended by food blogger Katie Parla.
