dinner rolls Messina: for those Messina these little sandwiches fragrant and covered with sesame seeds are a piece of the heart. The dinner rolls are born as a traditional food of Lent and, in particular, Holy Thursday. Their origins go back to the Last Supper of Christ and the broken bread to the table for the apostles. To celebrate Easter with more pomp, tradition has it that the regular bread was enriched with eggs, lard, butter, especially sugar and spice. Inside there are in fact cinnamon and cloves, that give these sandwiches a perfume and a unique and unmistakable taste. Outside of Messina sandwiches are the beloved Sesame seeds: the ciuciulena or Sicilian giuggiulena, many preparations that enters the island from CRISPY SESAME SEEDS.
Typical recipes Messina
In Messina these sandwiches are now found throughout the year, but few prepare it as usual: as was the case for pythons Messina, for FOCACCIA, for the ARANCINI Messina, Also the dinner rolls have given way to modernity. Now they are too sweet, too yellow, the clove is a thing because his style is not to everyone. They have become a trivial brioche. And me my heart. I remember the dinner rolls of Astone, legendary bakery in via Garibaldi now sadly closed and I could not give you a recipe that not be reflected in my memories.
Then, After many trials, proudly here is my recipe of dinner rolls: Messina if you try it and if you do not have them anyway because they're good. I leave the doses, as usual, with dry and cool beer and sourdough yeast: in all three cases, the recipe calls for the use of very little yeast and a long maturation and leavening in the refrigerator. To get a light and fragrant dough. In Messina the dinner rolls are a viable alternative to BRIOCHES WITH Tuppo to eat granita, but they are also stuffed perfect in both fresh (jams, chocolate cream) both in salty, with cooked or raw ham. Take a look at all my SICILIAN RECIPES and I wish you good day!
