Traditional Italian Christmas Cookies and Holiday Desserts - Episode 40

Holiday baking is one of the cornerstones of the holiday season and many of us have recipes for traditional Italian Christmas cookies and desserts that stem from family and local traditions. Every single town and region throughout Italy has fabulous holiday recipes and many of these have been adapted by Italian Americans and Italian immigrants worldwide. They reflect the availability of local ingredients plus the input of acquired new cultural baking recipes. Michele Di Pietro and I shared our Italian heritage holiday baking recipes, and lots of other unique Italian regional recipes. Lots of great links, photos and recipes in the show notes on the flavorofitaly.com website.
