Taralli Pugliesi

Taralli Pugliesi are delightful, crunchy Italian snacks from the Puglia region, traditionally enjoyed as a perfect accompaniment to wine. These vegan-friendly treats are flavored with fennel seeds, giving them a unique aromatic twist.

Ingredients

• All-purpose flour - 200 grams
• Olive oil - 50 ml

Steps

1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).

3. Add the olive oil and white wine to the flour mixture, and mix until crumbly.
4. Gradually add water, a tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together and is smooth.
5. Knead the dough on a lightly floured surface for about 5 minutes until elastic.
