About Cannistrelli
Cannistrelli are traditional Corsican biscuits, characterized by their crunchy texture and subtly sweet flavor. Typically crafted with simple ingredients like flour, sugar, butter or oil, white wine, and often flavored with anise, lemon zest, or almonds, they are a staple in Corsican baking. Their rustic and straightforward preparation reflects the island's culinary traditions. While rich in flavor, Cannistrelli are energy-dense due to their sugar and fat content, making them best enjoyed in moderation. They provide quick energy, making them ideal for pairing with coffee or tea during breakfast or snack time. Variations using olive oil instead of butter can offer a heart-healthier option and a lighter taste. Though not low-calorie, Cannistrelli are free of artificial additives or preservatives, making them a better choice compared to processed snacks. Their simplicity and adaptability in recipes make them a charming representation of Corsican cuisine.
