Mignolos
Mignolos are a type of cookie originating from Spain, particularly popular in Andalusia. The name "mignolo" is derived from the Spanish word "miga," meaning crumb, which refers to the cookie's characteristic tender and crumbly texture. They are typically made with a simple dough of flour, sugar, butter or lard, and often flavored with lemon zest or anise. The cookies are usually formed into small, crescent shapes or sometimes flattened discs, and baked until lightly golden.
The preparation of mignolos is a traditional practice in many Spanish households, especially around festive periods.
