Necci with ricotta and rosemary oil

Chestnut Necci with Ricotta Cheese, Rosemary Oil, Pine Nuts and Raisins




Necci are pancakes made with chestnut flour, a typical dish of the Tuscan and Garfagnana tradition.


The name "neccio", in fact, refers to chestnut flour.


We offer you the recipe for this dish as interpreted by Chef Cristina Cerbi, who together with her husband Luca Caraffini brings the Osteria di Fornio to life.



This is a recipe with a few simple ingredients, but very versatile

We propose it with a savory filling, but just add a spoonful of sugar to the ricotta to have a sweet alternative.
