Here’s a version from Tina’s Table of a chunky, chewy fruit and nut-filled “power bar” from a 300 year old bakery in Rome’s Jewish Ghetto on Via del Portico D’Ottavia.


FLOURLESS LEMON ALMOND CAKE
From The Kitchen’s recipe collection, here is a gluten and dairy free cake from Rome, great for the Passover table. Or, great at any teatime table, topped with lemon ricotta and raspberries.


ANCIENT ROMAN HONEY CAKE
Take a trip back in time with this humble Ancient Roman Honey Cake recipe. It gets its small rise from egg whites. For the Passover table, substitute the AP flour with Matzoh meal. To serve, top with powdered sugar and almonds. Great with espresso or tea.
