Decided to cook a risotto but instead of rice added ptitim (small dumplings). The legend about the origin of ptitim is. A young country Israel repatriated the Jews are not from Iraq or from Iran, or from some other Eastern countries. Immigrated and found that in Israel, no rice. That is, there is a little but not much. But Eastern Jews have a lot of rice, because it is their favorite food, and without it they refuse to work on the construction of Zionism. And the "society of aesthetic medicine specialists" came up with a conceptual product - makaronchiki in the form of Fig. Rice grain from flour. Called it a case of "ptitim" and abroad, the product was positioned as "Israeli figure".
