We all know the typical Italian amaretto cookie, with a sweet flavor combined with a bitter note... but do we also know the origins of its name?
The reason why this cookie is called “amaretto” is due to the fact that bitter almond is used as the main ingredient in its preparation. This almond tastes stronger and more bitter than the sweet almond, and it is this flavor that gives the amaretto cookie its unique and distinctive feature.
The history of the amaretto cookie dates back to the 18th century, when it was created for the first time in Saronno, a city in the Italian region of Lombardy. According to legend, the cookie was created by a young widow named Amaretti, who was trying to find a way to keep her sweet shop in business. Using the ingredients at his disposal, including bitter almonds, sugar and egg whites, he created the amaretto cookie, which soon became very popular with the customers of his store. #39
Since then, the amaretto cookie has become a beloved dessert around the world, used in many dessert and dessert recipes. Its unique flavor and fascinating history have made it a symbol of Italian culture and a gourmet pleasure for many people around the world.
The amaretto can also be used in the recipe for a gluten-free cake that I love! The cake with ricotta and macaroons, excellent for a snack with friends suitable for older children.
