Mazzarelle is an ancient recipe typical of the Abruzzo tradition, widespread above all in the mountains, particularly in the Teramo area.[1][2] It is listed as a prodotto agroalimentare tradizionale (PAT) by the Ministry of Agricultural, Food and Forestry Policies.[3] Mazzarelle are rolls of lamb offal wrapped in endive leaves tied with casings of the same lamb.
