  • About

Bounet, bunet or bonet is a traditional festive dessert from Piedmonte. The name is thought to be derived from “bonnet” (hat), since the dessert is the ‘hat’ of the meal. Bounet is delicious and very good with any dessert wine that goes well with chocolate, including Barolo Chinato and Pedro Ximenez.

This recipe is adapted for sous vide from the great Italian cooking site GialloZafferano. I prefer to make individual portions because you don’t have to cut, and therefore it looks nice
