amaretto

Amaretto is a sweet Italian liqueur that originated in Saronno, Italy.
Amaretto (Italian for "a little bitter") is a sweet Italian liqueur that originated in Saronno, Italy. While originally flavoured from bitter almonds, various modern commercial brands are prepared from a base of apricot stones, peach stones, or almonds, all of which are natural sources of the benzaldehyde that provides the principal almond-like flavour of the liqueur.

    Recipe Scallops with hazelnut beurre noisette and tangerine curd

    This makes an attractive looking starter and cooks in a few minutes if you prepare the elements ahead of time.
