- These biscuits literally mean "ugly but good" that describes them perfectly!! They are a speciality of the Veneto region in Italy. They are crisp on the outside and chewy on the inside. I got this recipe from
- Preheat the oven to 200C/400F. Line 2 baking sheets with nonstick baking paper. Put the hazelnuts and icing sugar in a heavy saucepan. Beat the egg whites till stiff in a bowl, then add in to the pan. Place the pan over moderate heat and cook for 15 min, stirring all the time, till the mix comes away from the sides of the pan and is a light golden.
- Remove the pan from the heat. Scoop out the mix with 2 tsp. into rough mounds and place them spaced apart on the baking paper to allow for slight spreading during cooking. Bake for 10 min. Transfer the biscuits on the paper to wire racks and leave to cold (they will harden on cooling).
- Makes about 20.
