Panelle are chickpea-flour fritters made with fresh parsley, lemon juice, salt, and olive oil. They are particular to the Palermo region and are eaten as finger food or inside a bun for a panino. Yum.
We’ll be eating panelle and more streetfood in Palermo’s open-air markets on Day 13 of September’s Enchanting Sicily small-group tour. Join us!
