The game now is .... guess riddle, what are the real sparklers?
Like I wrote last week, the (st) reindeer could not stop, or rather, we could not resist the temptation to continue our adventure or game or sharing or whatever you want to call, and we decided to prepare a series of dishes that are not what they seem. It 's the case of today's recipe, found on ricettesegrete , and particularly suited to the Carnival. In practice, it is colored and cooked chatter around the cylinder for preparing the cannoli, so as to give them the shape of the streamers. A recipe is thus not only our right to this collection, but can be adapted to the Carnival and in particular to children's parties ... not by chance you should have seen the faces of my nieces when I presented them with these colorful sweet ^ _ ^
streamers for Carnival (of ricettesegrete)
Ingredients: 400g flour, 2 eggs, 1 egg yolk, 40g melted butter, 80 g sugar, 1 glass of brandy, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract , lemon zest, 1 tablespoon milk, 1 teaspoon of olive oil, a pinch of salt, food coloring, peanut oil, sugar.
Preparation: Make the fountain with the flour, add the other ingredients and knead until dough is smooth and uniform. If dough is too hard you can add some dry white wine. Let stand to cool for about half an hour. Divide the dough into 4 pieces each and add a few drops of food coloring is different for each part. Work with a dose of dough at a time and cover remaining dough with a clean cloth to prevent drying out. Roll out thin sheets of helping with "Grandma Duck" that is used for pasta. Cut the dough into long strips and roll it on the steel cylinders, trying to fix the two ends to prevent srotolino when frying. Fry in a pan fried in olive oil. Once the gold drain and place on paper towels. Let cool and remove it very gently from the cylinder. Sprinkle with icing sugar.
my notes: I pulled the sheet with the chatter of machine for the dough to the thickness reaching number 7. The
I colored three colors instead of four.
I then cooked in hot oil at 175 ° C for 10 seconds, turn and then drain. They are also in excellent
white.
So, are you able to guess which are the real sparklers? ^ _ ^
As always, I refer you to tomorrow's blog Stefania, for a new recipe (st) reindeer ;-)
