Galani

@tuduu

Galani are light and crispy pastry strips typical of the Venetian Carnival. They appear as thin, jagged strips of fried dough, dusted with powdered sugar. They are very similar to 'chiacchiere' but have a more crumbly and delightful texture. These sweets are usually prepared during the Carnival period and are served as a snack or dessert after meals. The recipe we offer is simple and quick to prepare, resulting in fragrant and irresistible galani.
