Critical Success Points

  • Melt the butter and heat the milk without boiling.
  • Achieve a very supple dough by incorporating the liquid gradually.
  • Roll the dough very thinly with the pasta machine.
  • Fry at controlled temperature (≈ 170°C) to avoid burning.
  • Soak the cakes in warm honey without breaking them.

Safety Warnings

  • Frying oil is very hot; handle with care and never leave unattended.
  • Hot milk can cause burns; check the temperature before adding to the dough.
  • Use the pasta machine blades carefully to avoid cuts.
