64. Tortello di Valentano

The history of the tortello valentanese is lost in time and memory. In fact, the origin of the current recipe is doubtful, dating back to the 19th century, when it was made, modified over time and handed down, as a local craft, orally from family to family with numerous variations. The arrival of the current recipe can be found in the post-war period of the 20th century, when it became the typical cake of Valentina's religious festivities, made with poor materials that were easily available even during the most austere periods.
