Prepared from a mixture of water, wheat flour and yeast, the crescentine owe their delicacy mixture that traditionally takes place using a pesto made of a chopped pork fat, garlic and rosemary and Parmigiano Reggiano, and sometimes, they are also stuffed with ham and cheese and, ultimately, is spreading the habit of using jam as a filling and chocolate creams.
