Introduction
Fritole is a Trieste-based sweet: it is already mentioned in a book of 1400 when they become part of the list of gifts that the Municipality offers to the Count of Grado. They’re getting ready for Christmas and Carnival. “Tonde e s’gionfete, par tante balete che nuda nel mar” (Round and deflated seem so many balls swimming in the sea). They are considered a homemade dessert “più vecio del cuco” (really very old), but always current.
