March 19, 2010 SAN GIUSEPPE

Greetings to all the fathers

On this occasion the Our friend Barbara alf http://guantodaforno.blogspot.com

proposed an interactive experiment with the preparation Zeppole of St. Joseph

Given that gave several indications for the choice of the recipe, I have redone the zeppole http://croce-delizia.blogspot.com had tried once last year out of curiosity and the result was excellent, very good, which is baked fries

To this day I decided to just make them in the oven.

Here the water with the fat bubbles in the second pic the mixture separates from the pan, is ready. Third photo cooled mixture to eggs and incorporated
Finally forming on baking paper,


Ingredients For the dough 250 ml of water

75 grams of butter
25 grams of
lard 1 pinch of salt
250 grams of flour
310 g of whole eggs (6 eggs of average size)


For the cream 400 ml milk 100 ml fresh cream


4 egg yolks 120 gr
40 grams of sugar flour
peel of a lemon.

Preparation: Put in a pan
water , Butter and lard with a pinch of salt.
Bring to a boil, remove the pan from the heat. Pour the flour in one fell swoop, stirring vigorously with a wooden spatula, incorporate the liquid.
Put on the heat and allow to dry mixing the dough is ready when you are away from the sides and bottom of the pan, making a noise as if friggesse.
Remove from heat and stir to cool slightly.
With electric whisk together the eggs, one at a time. Making good
absorb each egg mixture before adding the next.
The mixture should appear smooth but quite firm and elastic.
Put the dough into a pastry bag with union star and now we can proceed in two ways:

1) The form of buns spiral over small squares of parchment paper that are immersed upside down in a pan with oil not too hot, or in deep fryer to 165 ° degrees (although the tradition is to use lard).

2) in the oven, put the donuts on a plate covered with parchment paper and bake at 170 degrees for about 20 minutes (until they are lightly browned)
finish cooking to 190 ° (about 15 minutes)
A secret to a more intense flavor, replace a small amount of water with a good white wine. For

Put the cream
lemon zest (no white part) in milk and bring to a boil in a saucepan
Meanwhile, pour the egg yolks, sugar, flour (I did half flour and half potato starch) and mix. Add the milk without peel and cook, stirring constantly until the cream thickens.
Whip cream and gently mix it
cold cream with a little bag to put the cream in the donuts, cherry syrup and garnish with a complete dusting of icing sugar. (Unfortunately I can not eat sour cherries and berries, then stuffing with cream, it is very good itself)



While they boil swell closing, just a slight tap in the center and will be ready to accommodate the filling of your choice
