Equipment

  • Mixing bowls
  • Spianatoia
  • Rolling pin
  • Pennello per dolci
  • Baking tray
  • Parchment paper
  • Microwave (per intiepidire il latte, facoltativo)

Ingredients

  • 1 Kg 00 flour
  • 4 no. eggs
  • 250 g. granulated sugar
  • 1 glass olive oil
  • 200 ml. milk
  • 2 cubes brewer's yeast 25 gr each

instructions

  • Put the flour on the pastry board, and add all the other ingredients. The mixture must be soft and elastic.
  • Add the milk little by little, until completely absorbed. The mixture will not have to stick to the hands. In this case, add a little flour.
  • From this mixture it will take 1/3 from which the mother yeast will be obtained. It will be held in a warm place for 24 hours (leavening).
  • After 24 hours, add the mixture to the rest of the ingredients.
  • Work very well, to get a soft and smooth mixture.
  • Begin to spin the dark, give a circular shape, such as intertwined donuts and place in the center of each in the egg.
  • At this point, put the Cozzupes to rest in a warm, covered environment, to be able to rise for at least another 12 hours.
  • The test for a correct leavening is to sink the finger into the pasta.
  • The mark will have to remain. In addition, the coozzupes must be light and soft.
  • With a beaten egg and a brush for desserts, polish the surface of the Cozzupe.
  • Bake in a wood oven or in a very high temperature electric oven.

        Vorrei sapere delle cose ma quello che resta dal 1/3 che prendiamo dove lo mettiamo?
        In più i 50 grammi di lievito dove va messo in tutto l’impasto o nel 1 /3 di impasto preso e fatto crescere per 24 ore???

          Salve. Abbiamo interpellato direttamente la creatrice della ricetta, di nome Mara, la quale dice:
          “Premesso che questi dolci sono molto complessi e molte sono le varianti che ognuno adopera in base ai propri gusti e tradizioni.” ci dice “C’è chi vuole impasto morbido e soffice ma durevole per pochi giorni, altri prediligono un impasto più rustico ma che duri nel tempo. Tutto dipende dal tipo di lievito usato e dall’esperienza che si fa man mano. Ad oggi, confesso, ho ancora grandi dubbi poiché è un dolce che faccio una sola volta l’anno. Comunque, l’impasto restante si lascia riposare coperto a temperatura ambiente. Il lievito (50g.), si può mettere tutto nell’impasto di 1/3 oppure dividerlo a metà tra l’impasto di 1/3 e l’impasto che si unirà successivamente al momento della filatura”.
          Appena possibile pubblicheremo una ricetta più semplice, sempre della stessa creatrice.
          Grazie,
          Anna
