Making Pizzelles

[gsantoliquido]

When we say the word "pizzelle" it is the plural form of "pizzella". Thought you might want to know this. Ciao!

Hmmm your batter seems a lot thicker than ours for some reason. I'll have to see what different with it. =)

I'm from Florida, but my grandfather was born and raised in Villa di Serio. We make these every Christmas! Sooooo good! =}

i forgot that we also add the zest of a lemon!!!

Hi, i live in Italy and my mother is abbruzzese from Ortona, is nice to see that many italians abroad have kept the tradition! There are different sizes of irons to make pizzelle in abruzzo, and depending on the shape you get a different thickness, the thicker pizzelle tend to be softer and usually heart shaped. The only difference with your recepie is that we use extra virgin olive oil instead of vegetable one, we add half a glass of Sambuca liquer and we don't put any backing powder:-)

@lcostigliolo Ahhhhhh.....Sambuca!

Fantastic video! Some call them Ferratelle as well as Pizzelle. Is your family Abruzzese? My granny was so we make them, as a matter of fact, my mom made them yesterday! So good, some people her put Nutella between 2 of the pizzelle. Must be good! Thanks for posting it.

[foxbytes]

Yes....Abruzzese on my father's side.

[giaiz]

Abruzzi ?? it's called abruzzo!!

hey please learn the italian culture and languages

[sh97]

Abruzzo is also known as Abruzzi. Pizzelles do exist in Italy.

[giaiz]

this doesn't exist in italy.

[foxbytes]

I don't know where you live in Italy, but it certainly does exist in the part of Italy (Abruzzi) that my grandmother came from.

so it's kinda like waffles huh? does it taste like waffles or more like cookies. sorry, i'm just interested in it.

[foxbytes]

They are like cookies...with the anise flavor.

[mylove1]

alright thank you. i'd love to try to make some one day. thanks for sharing.

[Azarath22]

They are more of like a cookie. They kind of have the consistancy of a waffer cookie. They can be made with vanilla, anise(licoriche) or chocolate.

[montrealstars60]

@mylove1

They're not soft as waffles and are less sweet. You need a special utensil to make them, they are made on top of the kitchen burner.

Some use the elettric ones now, but the other works better.

[CooTie]

I put 1/4 cup of whiskey or anista or liquer in mine

[paciullo1]

i know this video!

[rabbitsrock07]

That's beautiful! I'd love to try some...they'd go well with honey, or milk, don't you think? Simply lovely. ^-^

[Niktick]

Hello foxbyte,

I love this video. The music in the background makes me appreciate life.

When i make pizzells i like to roll them while they are still hot and flexible and let them

cool in the shape of a lady lock and fill them with cream. I just learned this trick but i don't have a good cream recipe. it's alright but nothing fancy. do you have any good cream recipes that you would not mind sending me? I would really appreciate it.

Thanks for posting

[oscarscheepstra]

[paciullo1]

[foxbytes]

Thanks so much.

[paciullo1]

This is so neat and interesting. What is the country of origin of this food?

[foxbytes]

Italy....a family tradition.

[giggygina1950]

WE made pizzelles too but used my electric iron. Next time I will use my vintage iron, you have inspired me again! Thanks much & Happy New Year

[meggiemeg86]

Family and friends.
