Gluten-free chiacchiere are a delicious dessert typical of the Carnival period. This recipe by chef Emanuele Luciano will allow you to prepare light and crunchy chiacchiere, also suitable for those following a gluten-free diet.

Ingredients:

• 250 g of Fioreglut Mulino Caputo gluten-free flour
• 2 eggs
• 50 g of sugar
• 50g butter, melted
• 2 pinches of bicarbonate of soda
• Grated zest of one lemon
• 20 g of witch
• 20 g of white wine
• 1 pinch of salt
• Fry oil
• Powdered sugar for dusting

Instructions:

1. In a bowl, sift the gluten-free flour. Add the bicarbonate of soda and the pinch of salt, mix well.

2. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with the sugar until frothy.

3. Add the melted butter to the eggs and mix well.

4. Add the egg and butter mixture to the flour mixture, add the grated lemon zest and knead until smooth.

5. Cover the dough with cling film and leave to rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

6. Roll out the dough on a floured surface until it is thin (about 2-3 mm).

7. Cut the dough into strips or desired shapes, such as rectangles or woven ribbons.

8. Heat plenty of oil in a deep pan to around 170-180°C.

9. Fry the chiacchiere a few at a time until they are golden on both sides (about 2-3 minutes per side).

10. Drain the chiacchiere on absorbent paper to eliminate excess oil.

11. Once cooled, dust the chiacchiere with icing sugar.

Gluten-free chatter is ready to be enjoyed! You can store them in an airtight container to keep them crispy. Enjoy your meal!
