Well, here we are with gluten-free Cardinali muffins… beautiful to look at, but especially delicious to eat. Preparing them was a great fun because I needed someone from Sardinia who could teach me how to make the “real stuff”, so I invited my friend Maria Elena for a full immersion in Sardinian cuisine.
