Throughout Italy on St. Joseph’s D<\/strong>ay, March 19, Father’s Day<\/strong>, celebratory sweets are cooked. In Umbria we have the \u201cFrittelle di San Giuseppe\u201d- Saint Joseph’s fritters<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Fun facts about the origins<\/strong> of St. Joseph’s Day. In addition to its obvious Christian roots, St. Joseph\u2019s day has Celtic origins<\/strong> linked to the solstice<\/strong>, while in our tradition it is also the date that marks the end of the cold season, winter, and the beginning of summer. In some places “Fires of St. Joseph<\/strong>” are lit as propitiators for crops<\/strong> and as an offering to the Saint who suffered the cold in Bethlehem.<\/p>\n

In central and southern Italy, we have the delicious zeppole<\/strong> cakes. Legend has it that Giuseppe, in addition to being a carpenter, to support his family he became a frier and peddler of Fritters<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Today we bring you to Umbria<\/strong> with the recipe of our St. Joseph’s fritters, these rice cakes<\/strong> are a specialty that you can enjoy throughout central Italy.<\/p>\n
