Ciambella all'anice di Veroli

Ciambella all'anice is a delicious anise-flavored bread from the town of Veroli, located in the province of Frosinone, Lazio. The simple dough made with flour, water, salt, yeast, and anise seeds is twisted, shaped in a circle resembling a crown, then baked in the oven until golden brown.

Traditionally prepared for New Year’s Day, nowadays it can be found all year round, served instead of regular bread or as a tasty snack, usually accompanied with a glass of wine.
