It is just in Lamporecchio, Tuscany where these typical yellow particular 'dolcetti' of the province of Pistoia are been born and the legend tells that the nuns of a convent have invented them, by mistake. The brigidino originated from an error of suor Brigida who got confused while she prepared the paste of wafers. The sisters, in order not to waste the compound, thought well to add some of aniseeds, to render it more tasty. It was therefore so that in Lamporecchio this special "trastullo" originated and become destined to represent a tradition, giving life and support to many craftsmen, who still nowadays are specialized in the production of the brigidino. |
