Product: Ricciarelli di Siena are traditional Tuscan sweets made with almonds, sugar, egg whites, and flavorings. They have a soft, fragrant interior and a thin, sugary crust on the outside. Typically diamond-shaped and dusted with powdered sugar, these biscuits are especially popular during the Christmas holidays. Known for their delicate flavor and intense almond aroma, Ricciarelli are a beloved symbol of Siena’s pastry tradition.
Details: In Siena, Ricciarelli are typically paired with a glass of Vin Santo, a sweet Tuscan wine. The contrast between the wine’s sweetness and the soft texture of the Ricciarelli creates a perfect match that enhances the flavor of both. They are also sometimes served with coffee or tea, especially during the Christmas season.
History: Their history dates back to the medieval period, when Sienese pastry chefs made them for special occasions. Legend has it that almond paste was introduced to Siena by a cook from the East who created a new type of pastry. Made mainly with almonds, sugar, egg whites, and flavorings, these delicious biscuits with a soft center and sugar crust have become a symbol of Siena’s rich pastry tradition.
