Ingredients

  1. 1 1/2 pounds/700 g all-purpose flour
  2. 1 cup/250 ml extra-virgin olive oil
  3. Splash red wine
  4. 1 cup/250 ml lukewarm water, or as much as you need

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
  2. Place the flour on a worktable. Make a well in the center of the flour and add the olive oil, wine and water. Combine the ingredients and knead until the mixture becomes an even dough. If necessary, add a little more water and continue kneading.
  3. Cut off a small amount of dough and roll into a 1/2-inch thick log. Cut the log into 5-inch long pieces. Then form a ‘doughnut-like’ shape by pinching the opposite ends together. Repeat the above process with the remaining dough.
  4. Place the taralli in a pot of boiling water for about 1 minute or until they float to the surface.
  5. Stir to prevent them from sticking together. Remove the taralli from the water with a slotted spoon and dry off any excess water with a dishcloth.
  6. Line a baking tray with parchment paper and bake for approximately 10 minutes or until golden brown on one side. Turn the taralli over to cook the other side. Serve with wine.

Completely tasteless if you don’t put salt… There’s no salt in the recipe… I don’t really know why.
Relatively easy to mix the ingredients… Sort of fun to bring it all together… Rolling it out was a little tedious… Make sure water is boiling before you put the dough in!
Also make sure that you roll it out Nice and thin Otherwise they don’t get crispy…
I added chopped olives in half the recipe…Then I made other half recipe with fennel seeds… Even with those delicious flavors It definitely lacked salt.

Overall a good recipe but you have to do your own tweaking!
