Cultured Palate: Dishes from Italy

13. Sfogliatelle
Sfogliatelle has a remarkably monastic heritage for such an indulgent little treat as they were originally created in the monastery of Santa Rosa in Salerno, Italy. Made of dough that separates into many thin layers when baked, the pastries are then filled with pastry cream. Find them in any local bakery in Italy — they make an excellent compliment to espresso.
