The Mint turned into the modern sweet that we all know.<\/p>\n<h2>The migliaccio today<\/h2>\n<p>As with many traditional recipes, many elements resist, others are simply replaced, as in the case of millet bread, which today has given way<strong> durum wheat flour<\/strong>, or semolina, now the main ingredient in making this dessert.<\/p>\n<p>A last curiosity about this dish? The ingredients used to make the mgliaccio are the same as those found in the filling of the Neapolitan sfogliatella. In some areas of <strong>Campania<\/strong>, such as the Valle Caudina (between Benevento and Avellino), it is also known as &#8220;sfogliata&#8221;. In short, the migliaccio can be defined in a sense as the poor version of the famous <strong>Neapolitan sfogliatelle<\/strong>. Oh yes because despite the inexorable passing of time this cake has not managed to shake off the appellation of the poor tradition, but we do not care because we like it just as it is, in its simplicity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Neapolitan confectionery boasts several delicacies in fact the desserts, one of these is surely the migliaccio, a typical dessert of the carnival period.
