Globi

Hail Globi!

Globi are small, sweet fried dough balls from ancient Roman cuisine, made from cheese — often ricotta — mixed with flour and eggs, then fried and coated in honey, sometimes finished with poppy seeds. Popular at Roman feasts for their creamy-crisp texture, they appear in the earliest surviving recipe in Cato the Elder's De Agri Cultura, offering a glimpse into rustic yet indulgent Roman cooking traditions. - AsNotedIn
