القصة
الكانولي من أشهر حلويات صقلية، ويعتمد جمالها على التباين الواضح بين قشرة رقيقة تُقلى حتى تصبح هشة ومليئة بالفقاعات الصغيرة وحشوة ناعمة من الريكوتا المحلاة. يمكن إضافة قشر الحمضيات أو الشوكولاتة أو الفستق للحشوة، لكن القرمشة تبقى العنصر الأهم. للحصول على أفضل نتيجة تُحشى القشور قبل التقديم بقليل حتى لا تمتص الرطوبة. ترتبط الكانولي بالمناسبات والأعياد ومحال الحلويات الصقلية.

الطريقة
Method
Tip the flour, sugar, bicarb, cinnamon and cocoa powder (if using) into a bowl with a pinch of salt, add the butter and rub into the dry ingredients until there are no lumps. Mix the egg yolk and the marsala, add this to the dry ingredients and knead into a smooth dough. Wrap and rest in the fridge (can be made ahead and fried the next day) Fill a deep-fat fryer, wok or a deep saucepan a third of the way up with oil. Cut the dough into pieces and, working one piece at a time, roll them out as thinly as you can – use a pasta machine if you have one. Heat the oil and keep an eye on it until it reaches 180 °C. Lay the dough out on a lightly floured surface and cut out circles about 11 cm across. Wrap each one around a cannoli mould, using some egg white to stick to the top edge down, and they are ready for frying. It's important to take care when cooking with hot oil. Keep the oil at 180°C and be careful of splashes or the oil overflowing onto the cooker could cause fire, a deep fat fryer is recommended for the best way to control the heat of the oil. Deep-fry the cannoli (with their moulds) one at a time, making sure they cook all over. They should take about 45-60 seconds. They should be golden brown and cook a little longer if they aren't the dough will bubble and blister. Carefully take each one out of the oil using tongs and shake the cannoli off the mould very carefully onto kitchen paper. As you fry each one, make sure that the oil stays at 180°C at all times and doesn't get any hotter. These will keep for 2-3 days in an airtight container. When the cannoli are cold, dip the end of each one into chocolate, then dip some of those into the pistachios. Leave to cool and harden. Beat the ricotta and mascarpone together, then stir in the candied peel and sugar. Spoon the mixture into a piping bag with a wide star nozzle and pipe it into the cannoli dust with icing sugar, then serve
