Traditional Agri-food Product, on the national list of the Italian Ministry of Agriculture
Taralli (sing.: tarallo) are toroidal Italian snack foods, common in southern Italy. Wheat-based crackers similar in texture to breadsticks, taralli can be sweet or savory.
Taralli are classically formed into rings or ovals about 10 to 12.5 cm (3.9 to 4.9 in) in circumference. Smaller taralli, called tarallini, with a circumference of 3.8 to 7.8 cm (1.5 to 3.1 in), are sold commercially. Their dough may be shortened with olive oil or lard. More common historically were taralli made with lard, which produces a flakier product.
