6. Strufoli!

One grandmother made the strufoli rather large, about 3/4 inches in diameter, and the other grandmonther made the small ones. Since pictures on the internet are to different scales, I made a montage.



And I learned to make both! ("gravy," too)

Sfogliatelle are tough to make. Sam's Italian Deli in Fresno has them, and surprise, I found them in Trader Joe's recently, though TJ is a movable feast. "Stuff comes and goes at Trader Joe's"

Musical Content: I'm listening to Bianco's Opera Lounge while typing.
