Saint Joseph's Day
Maccu, (also known as maccu di fave, and sometimes referred to as macco), is a Sicilian soup and also a foodstuff that is prepared with dried and crushed fava beans (also known as broad beans) and fennel as primary ingredients. Several dishes exist using maccu as a foodstuff, such as "Bruschetta al maccú" and "Maccu di San Giuseppe", the latter of which may be served on Saint Joseph's Day in Sicily.
