Traditional Rice Cake (Torta degli Addobbi – Artusi Recipe No. 638)

Redazione

Historic dessert with a distinctive diamond-shaped pattern and a glossy, amber-colored surface. The rice, patiently cooked in whole milk flavored with lemon zest and vanilla, is soft, compact, and bound together into a single body with ground almonds and candied citron. On the palate, the moist, velvety consistency of the filling stands out, moistened while hot with Sassolino liqueur, which releases an unmistakable, deep, old-fashioned anise aroma.
