Scrippelle


This dish is served in the throughout the Teramo province and is somewhat similar to French crepes, although typically made without milk. There are two common variations. The first is scrippelle 'mbusse - (dialect for scrippelle in brodo or broth) and consists of scrippelle rolled up in Pecorino or Parmesan cheese and served in chicken broth. A second variation is timballo - scrippelle layered with ragù, meat or tiny meatballs (polpettini), various cheeses such as scamorza, and sometimes peas (piselli).

Some people say that the best scripple are made by the wonderful cooks of Valle San Giovanni, a small village of about 350 people located 8km from the city center of Teramo. Valle San Giovanni also hosts a holiday rental villa known as Casale

The town has a church (”chiesa”), one bar (Bar Novanta), a grocery store (alimentari), a vegetable store (fruttivendolo), a post office branch (Ufficio Postale), and a hardware store (ferramenta). There are several restaurants within a 3-7 km driving distance.

Scrippelle are sometimes referred to as "scrippelle 'mbuse" dialect for "scrippelle in brodo."

The owners of the Italian Kitchen in Pennsville, NJ along with the Roman Pantry in Penns Grove, NJ have been known to make this dish for family members who come to visit from Valle Soprana and Valle San Giovanni in Abruzzo Italy.
