An Italian cookbook from the sixteenth century has a recipe for "Brazzatelle di latte, e zuccaro." The recipe looks as though it might be for either pretzels or bagels--or some other breadstuff that is boiled then baked and has a distinctive shape. My best guess is that it is pretzels, since it looks a little like the German "brezel," but that is only a guess.
Does anyone here know what the word means (or meant)?
