CURLY TART
(Torta ricciolina)
Sweet almonds with a few bitter ones, four ounces,
Granulated sugar, six ounces,
Candied fruits or angelica, 2 1/2 ounces,
Butter, two ounces,
Lemon peel.
Mix two eggs with flour, flatten the paste to a thin sheet on a bread board and
cut into thin noodles. In a corner of the bread board make a heap of the almonds
with the sugar, the candied fruit cut in pieces and the grated lemon peel. All
this cut and crush so as to reduce the mixture in little pieces. Then take a
pie-dish and without greasing it, spread a layer of noodles on the bottom, then
pour part of the mixture, then another layer of noodles and continue until there
remains no more material, trying to have the tart at least one inch thick. When
it is so prepared cover with the melted butter, using a brush to apply it
evenly.
