Pitteddhe Stuffed with Figs

“Little star-shaped shortcrust tarts, hand-pinched and filled with fig jam.”

Pitteddhe are traditional sweets from Salento: small star-shaped tarts, hand-pinched and filled with fig jam.

From Puglia Handmade 225 g

Pitteddhe are a typical delicacy of the Salento tradition, in the heart of Puglia. Also known locally as pittegge, they are called star-shaped tarts for their distinctive shape: small filled sweets that combine the crunch of shortcrust pastry with the softness of the filling.

The base is a simple, genuine dough — flour, butter, sugar and eggs — worked and left to rest briefly, then filled with fig jam, a fruit typical of the region. These are grandma's sweets: the ones you remember for the scent that came out of her cupboard.

How they're made

From dough to star

The dough

Small balls

Molto buone.m, forse un po' troppo dolci, ma il sapore del fico si apprezza volentieri.
