in all bars in the Eternal City and in bars in the region of Latium; they are filled with whipped cream and served next to a steaming and fragrant cappuccino.\u00a0<\/p><p><em>Maritozzo<\/em>, meaning

the\u00a0<em>maritozzi<\/em>\u00a0that in old times one of the necessary requirements for girls looking for a husband was the ability to bake good buns: hence because these pastries would bring in a successful marriage and a\u00a0<em>marito<\/em>\u00a0the name morphed into the affective word\u00a0<em>maritozzo<\/em>.<\/p><p>The\u00a0<em>maritozzi<\/em>\u00a0most be served fresh, the same day they

that will present some difficulties: we suggest using an electric mixer in order to simplify this part of the preparation. The amount of water is variable, depending on the humidity of the air and on the dryness of the flour: at the end, the dough should be softer and stickier than the consistency of
