My recipe for Fave dei Morti (Almond Cookies), as excerpted from Flavors of Friuli: A Culinary Journey through Northeastern Italy, is featured today at chicgalleria.com. Translated literally as “beans of the dead,” Italian fave dei morti cookies are typically prepared during the months of October and November to celebrate All Saints’ Day. This recipe was given to me by the Stoppar family at Pasticceria Penso in Trieste.
