I've added subtitles to this video of @/cabrafotuda (Instagram, TikTok) and his lovely grandma cooking bollitori, a traditional dish from the Alacant area in the south of the Valencian Country.
This dish is typically eaten during the Holy Week, especially on Holy Thursday, since it's a humble food with no meat.

You can find this bread in the bakeries of Catalonia only around the festivity of Sant Jordi (23rd of April). Sant Jordi is one of the most important Catalan traditions, in which we commemorate the legend of Sant Jordi (Saint George) who killed the dragon, and when the dragon’s blood touched the ground it became a red rose bush. In the same way that Sant Jordi picked a rose and gave it to the princess, we give roses to the people we love (family, partners, friends, coworkers...) and we also give books.
In Catalonia, this day has been a national holiday dedicated to love since the 15th century, and a very important one because Saint George is the patron saint of Catalonia (together with the Virgin of Montserrat). Nowadays, bakeries make this bread to celebrate the festivity, decorated with the colours of the Catalan flag (four red stripes on a yellow background). The yellow colour is achieved by mixing the bread with cheese, and the red is achieved by mixing it with sobrassada (a cured sausage made of pork with paprika and other spices).
