AUTHENTIC ITALIAN ZEPPOLE WITH RICOTTA DOUGH
Zeppole or Sfingi has a 2 basic recipe, but one uses potatoes and one uses ricotta. The ricotta version was used by the more higher class. The zeppole was first made in the Middle Ages. I personally love both ways, whether it's potatoes or ricotta. They both bring the true flavor of the original fried zeppole, or else it...
