folded in for lighter texture. These latkes are more delicate than
traditional potato latkes and make a wonderful dessert served with .."

"On a recent trip to Italy, we visited the Santini family at their
ristorante Dal Pescatore. I watched Bruna Santini prepare these candied
pears. It looked so easy, and they were so delicious. I could hardly wait
to try them at home. A perfect accompaniment with any of the latke
recipes."
(The Candied Pears recipe is also posted by itself, Larry.)
