In breve
The dish in short
- A dough of durum wheat semolina (or soft wheat flour), water, salt and lard, the lard at most a fifth of its weight.
- No whole egg, butter or oil in the dough: besides the lard, the specification allows only an egg yolk.
- A filling of fresh sheep's, goat's or cow's milk cheese with grated lemon or orange zest, melted slowly until thick or mixed raw.
- Two thin sheets round the cheese, each 0.5 mm–3 mm thick, sealed all the way round: 4 cm–18 cm across and 30 g–300 g each.
- Fried, then covered with honey or sugar and eaten hot.
