"Janet Wilder"
Here is the translation, but I recommend finding another recipe. There must be many in English online. Cassata is a typical Sicilian sweet for Easter. It's made many different ways, you'll find many versions. The version I propose today is simple a summery. 45 minutes cooking time For a cassata serving 6-8 1 pound of fresh cow's ricotta 150 g of sugar 4 eggs 100 g of candied orange peel 100 g of candied mixed peels 150 g of dark chocolate in flakes, shards, broken pieces 150 g raisins 75 g of chopped pistachios cinnamon You need a strainer or colander with small holes to make this. Press the ricotta through the strainer or colander to make it smooth, homogeneous and creamy. Then beat two eggs with the sugar until they are a very light cream, then add the ricotta, bit by bit adding the other ingredients: the orange peel, the other peel, the chocolate, the raisins and the pistachios. Stir, fold, and sprinkle with cinnamon, but not too much. Continue to stir And fold while the oven heats to 145°C or 300°F. When the oven is hot, butter an ovenproof pan and put the mixture in it then bake it for 30 minutes. The recipe is very easy but be careful not to overcook it or more than that, not too use too much cinnamon. It never mentions the other two eggs and never mentions a guideline amount of cinnamon. overall not a very good recipe. What you'll get from it will not resemble what I am used to as cassata, but I may not have had the perfect version. -- http://www.judithgreenwood.com |

It does appear to be a "defective" recipe so I'll not make it. Thanks, again. Texas Janet -- Janet Wilder Bad spelling. Bad punctuation Good Friends. Good Life |
