General information

In Nuoro, in occasion of the " All Saint´s Day " and the " Dead´s Day " (1st and 2nd of November), all the children go around the town, knocking at the doors and begging for an offer, usually composed of dried fruits (almonds, walnuts, and so on).
The "Papassinos " are made with roasted walnuts. Add these to the flour along with the butter, egg yolks, orange or lemon peel and raisins. Knead this into a pastry and roll it. Bake for about 10 minutes.
Usually, the Papassinos are covered on top with thick icing sugar.
