So today we're making...
Struffoli!
What does struffoli actually mean?
I have no clue.
What?
Struffoli?
Ravi doesn't know.
Struffoli?
I don't know.
These are the two hazelnuts that we put for measurements
and that these balls are getting progressively bigger.
Maybe it's Carolina that's the culprit.
Let's just do this.
When you're making them with a toddler.
What's your review of these, Ravi?
They're too big.
They're really good.
They're like a little donut.
That's really what it tastes like.
It tastes very good.
Alright, so in this pot, I'm making the glaze.
Honey, sugar, lemon juice.
You bring it up to sort of almost a boil
until the sugar dissolves.
And then you toss all of the struffoli in it
and the hazelnuts.
Toss, toss, let it cool for a second
and then transfer it to the plate.
That's how you make the wreath.
Oh, look at my hair. I look fabulous.
What's the dilemma here?
The dilemma is that she wants even more honey
but don't put too much honey, please.
They don't stick together.
I struffoli, leave it alone.
It was getting nice and hard.
Now you made it all hot again.
You can't take it off now.
You just put more honey in it.
You're not going to be able to take it off, period.
Because it won't stick together.
Melanie, are you going to get whatever Ravi tells you to get?
Who buys these?
Who buys this?
No, no, listen, I want to know.
Is it a little parasuit?
They're doilies.
Who buys these?
Those are perfect.
These are perfect.
Grandpa Dino always said that.
Let me try mine.
It's not good.
Thanks, Karolina.
We're all going to try Karolina's.
I think it progressively got better and better and better.
Struffoli!
