8 ideas for seasoning friselle: easy and full of flavor recipes!
The frisella (or fresella in Neapolitan or Calabrese) is a large tarallo of durum wheat or barley toasted in the oven (ie cooked twice) to allow it to be preserved. A few drops of water and a drizzle of olive oil are enough to revive the frize at any time we feel like it, to devour them more or less crunchy, according to taste.
During the summer, every occasion is good to devour them, they are perfect for lunch and dinner as a single dish, as an afternoon snack, but also for an "aperitif in the open".
We propose below 8 tasty recipes to season the friselle, starting from the classic frisella with tomato, up to a surprising sweet version with strawberries. To prepare these recipes we have chosen mini friselle.
