Description

The crunchy Apulian crackers called taralli are an excellent substitute for pretzels, and the best southern Italian bakeries in Brooklyn make them in several styles. One is actually pretzel shaped, flavored with cracked black peppercorns and embedded, in a way that demonstrates North African influences, with whole toasted almonds. Find them at Palermo Pastry Shop.
