It is important that the cannoli remain a bit to dry in the air before cooking. • Heat the oil until it reaches the temperature of 180° C. Begin to fry the cannoli one at a time, placing them on a skimmer and keeping them immersed for a few moments. This way they will not touch the bottom of the pot and will not burn. • It will take less than 1 minute, turn them continuously. • Drain cannoli. Attention, in the stainless cylinder there will be a bit of hot oil so be careful!! • Put the cannoli on a tray cover with absorbent kitchen paper • Let the cannoli cold a bit and remove the cylinder • Now take the cream and with the help of a teaspoon or a sac-à poche fill the cannoli • If you like, garnish with chopped pistachios or candied orange • you can also add a sprinkle of icing sugar • • That's all! I will advise filling cannoli at the moment or a couple hours before at max or the cannoli shells will soften. The cream can be stored in the fridge for a couple days and cannoli shells can be stored covered with a cloth for 3/4 days at room temperature.
