il pangiallo is a typical Christmas cake from the Lazio region. Its roots lie in the history of Rome when, during the imperial age, the winter solstice day, to celebrate and encourage the lengthening of the days in the following months. The sun was recalled precisely by the shape and color of the pangiallo: a dessert made up of chocolate, sugar, flour and dried fruit, covered by one yellow layer of cream obtained thanks to an emulsion with flour, oil, water and saffron.

storja

In ancient Rome pangiallo was prepared and served on the day of the Winter Solstice, the diċembru 21st, as an auspicious sign for the lengthening of the days. It is usually prepared to be given as a gift to relatives and close friends as a wish. Traditionally it was supposed to be prepared with almonds, hazelnuts, honey and candied citron. For a period of time, however, due to the very high cost of dried fruit, the housewives began to prepare it with plum and apricot pits left to dry in the sun. Now pangiallo is prepared throughout Lazio and it is also possible to find it in neighboring regions, such as Umbria.
