Ingredients and recipe to prepare one of the most well-known and appreciated carnival desserts by adults and children: chiacchiere con Bimby!

Known by different names throughout Italy, they are one of the typical Carnival desserts. They make their appearance a few days after the epiphany and accompany us until Shrove Tuesday. We are talking about chiacchiere, prepared with a very simple dough based on eggs, sugar and flour obtained with the Bimby (you can use any TM5, TM6 or TM31 model ).

From the prepared dough you must then obtain thin strips which you will then fry in hot oil. Like all typical recipes, there are many versions of this dessert. There are those who add limoncello, those who add brandy, those who opt for lighter cooking in the oven and so on. Below we explain how to prepare chiacchiere with the Bimby, the food processor that is a true ally in the kitchen!
