    It is Cookie Friday today and I have a guest on my blog – yay! This time it is a male guest for a change – haven’t had many of that species here lately ;) He is also somebody that really learned how to bake (unlike me), so you can expect great things! May I introduce you to Michael and his Ricciarelli di Siena…?! Here they are!

    As you probably know already, the number of guests for Cookie Friday has decreased – for some time there was a guest once a week – let’s say every Friday :P Now there is a guest once a month (at the most) – which is good! Finally I can bake cookies again ;) Yay! It also means I am much more excited when there ACTUALLY IS a guest!
    So – who is it today? Well I said it already – Michael ;) He is a pastry chef from Munich and blogging on “LAPÂTISSERIE“. I know his blog for quite some time already and following him ever since. Not stalking. Just keep an eye on what he is doing… and believe me, he is doing a lot of delicious stuff! Take a look at his macaron section on the blog – awesome! I wished I could make such good looking macarons!

    Well I should not tell you too much – I’m gonna let Michael talk now (in German)… and say thank you for being here for Cookie Friday! Thxs Michael!

    Hallo, ich bin Michael und blogge seit einiger Zeit auf dem Foodblog „LAPÂTISSERIE“. Ich bin gelernter Konditor und so komisch es klingen mag, der Blog ist meine Zone für kreatives Denken. Aus diesem Grund und der Liebe zu meinem Handwerk entstand der Blog. Durch meine besondere Liebe zur französischen Patisserie sind viele meiner Rezepte aus Frankreich inspiriert, wobei ich mich heute für eine italienische Kreation entschieden habe. Danke Marc, dass ich dein Gast sein darf.

    Als ich im Sommer in der Toskana war und wir von Pisa über Florenz, Lucca bis nach Siena gereist sind, hab ich einige kulinarische Entdeckungen gemacht, in der „Pasticceria“ als auch in der „Cucina“. Nun eine diese Errungenschaften aus dem süßen Bereich möchte ich heute mit euch teilen: Ricciarelli di Siena. Wie der Name schon sagt, kommen diese kleinen Mandelkekse ursprünglich aus Siena. In der Stadt gibt es Ricciarelli in allen möglichen Variationen von Schokolade über Nuss bis hin zum Klassiker mit Mandeln und Orange. Bei diesem Rezept habe ich mich vorerst für den Klassiker entschieden. Die Zubereitung ist ganz einfach, ihr müsst nur die Ruhezeit beachten, aber währenddessen kann man ja auch schlafen und in der Früh dann leckere und vor allem saftige Ricciarelli genießen.

    Euer Michael.

    INGREDIENTS / ZUTATEN

    • English
    • Deutsch
    (about 40 cookies)

    7 oz. (200g) confectioner’s sugar
    1/2 tsp. baking powder
    7 oz. (200g) ground almonds
    zest of an organic orange
    2 tbsp. amaretto
    2 egg whites
    confectioner’s sugar for rolling

    (ca. 40 Kekse)

    200g Puderzucker
    1/2 TL Backpulver
    200g gemahlene Mandeln
    Schalenabrieb einer Bio-Orange
    2 EL Amaretto
    2 Eiweiß
    Puderzucker zum Wälzen

    DIRECTIONS / ZUBEREITUNG

    • English
    • Deutsch
    1. Sift the confectioner’s sugar with the baking powder into a bowl. Mix in the ground almonds until well combined. Wash the orange with hot water, dry and grate the zest into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Add the amaretto and mix in.

    2. Add the egg whites to a clean and fat-free bowl and beat on high speed until stiff peaks form. Add the beaten egg whites to the bowl with the dry ingredients and fold in carefully. Cover the batter with plastic wrap and let sit for at least 8 hours, better over night.

    3. The next morning heat up the oven to 300˚F (150°C). Take small amouts of doug (about the size of a walnut), form balls and flatten a bit. If the dough sticks to your hands, dust them with confectioner’s sugar. Roll the cookies in confectioner’s sugar and place on a baking sheet lined with baing parchment. Bake for about 15 minutes – the Ricciarelli should stay light in color and not brown. Take out of the oven and let cool down and enjoy.

    1. Zuerst den Puderzucker zusammen mit dem Backpulver sieben. Die gemahlenen Mandeln gut unterrühren. Die Orange mit heißem Wasser abwaschen und die Schale mit einer Reibe in die trockene Mischung abreiben. Den Amaretto zugeben und unterrühren.

    2. Das Eiweiß in einer sauberen und fettfreien Schüssel mit einem Schneebesen oder in der Rührmaschine steif schlagen. Den Eischnee vorsichtig unter die Mandelmischung heben. Den Teig direkt mit Frischhaltefolie abdecken und am besten über Nacht, aber mindestens für acht Stunden, ruhen lassen.

    3. Am nächsten Morgen den Backofen auf 150°C (300°F) vorheizen. Etwa walnussgroße Kugeln aus dem Teig formen – damit der Teig nicht allzu stark an den Händen klebt, etwas Puderzucker auf die Hände geben. Die Teilkugeln leicht flach drücken und nochmals in Puderzucker wälzen. Anschließend auf ein Backblech mit Backpapier legen. Die Ricciarelli für ca. 15 Minuten backen, normalerweise sollen die Ricciarelli hell bleiben und keine braune Backfarbe bekommen. Nach dem Backen abkühlen lassen und genießen.

      Die kleinen Keckschen klingen traumhaft! Machen Urlaubsstimmung! Werde ich die nächsten Tage mal ausprobieren!!!
      Ich habe mal ne Frage zu der Ruhezeit vom Teig. Hast du den auch schonmal länger im Kühlschrank liegen lassen? Also nen knappen Tag bis zur Weiterverarbeitung? Schadet das dem Teig?

        Hallo Yvonne,
        da das Rezept nicht von mir ist, sondern von Michael (Lapatisserie), kann ich dazu jetzt keine konkrete Aussage machen – ich würde aber mal sagen, das sollte nicht so schlimm sein – die brauchen ja eh eine lange Ruhezeit – ein paar Stunden mehr oder weniger… ;P

        LG,
        Marc

    About me


    Hi, my name is Marc. I’m a graphic designer.
    I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake – for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers – and it seems they like it most of the time. ;)
