We had already spoken about the benefits of Sicilian Manna, a typical product of Sicily<\/a><\/strong> cultivated between Castelbuono and Pollina<\/strong>, in the Madonie Park<\/strong>. Manna is a crystallized sap from ash trees<\/strong>, which are particularly numerous in that area.<\/p>\n

This product is also known as \u201cthe nectar from heaven\u201d because of its delicate sugary flavor<\/strong>. It is used to sweeten food instead of sugar. Besides, the manna performs a soothing and emollient action<\/strong> for your throat and bronchi, and it has an excellent depurative power<\/strong> for your intestine. These qualities make it suitable for your culinary and cosmetic recipes.<\/p>\n

We propose you 5 recipes<\/strong>\u00a0so that you can\u00a0make the best use <\/strong>of the Sicilian manna both in your kitchen and for your skincare<\/strong>.<\/p>\n
