Ingredients

20 Eggs

5,12 lbs, oz flour

3.5 cups olive oil

3 cups sugar

2 tsp ammonia carbonate (or baking soda)

2 tsp vanilla

3 tsp star anise crushed or liquid anise

1 tsp salt


Directions

Put flour on pastry board, make large well in the middle. Break eggs and start beating them with a fork incorporating flour in them and adding all of the other ingredients as you incorporate the eggs and flour. Keep on beating with the fork until you have a soft dough that will not stick to the board. Roll the “ciambelle” – it helps to keep your hands oily. Bake at 350° to 400° for about 30 minutes.
