Инструкции

  1. These traditional Sicilian sweets (called zeppole in Naples) are similar to warm vanilla doughnuts and are perfect to make for a large gathering. If your guests help you cook this old-fashioned treat, the sfingi will never make it out of the kitchen.
  2. In a medium-size pot or possibly bowl, whisk together the flour, 1-1/4 c. lowfat milk, Large eggs, granulated sugar, baking pwdr and vanilla till the batter is smooth and the consistency of cake batter. Cover the pot with a clean, thick kitchen towel. Let the batter rest in a draft-free area for 30 to 60 min or possibly till it has risen by at least half. (If the batter hasn't risen sufficiently, add in 1 more heaping tsp. baking pwdr.)
  3. Pour extra virgin olive oil to a depth of 3 inches in another medium-size pot. Place over medium heat and heat oil to 350 degrees. Test the oil by dropping in 1 Tbsp. of the batter. If the batter instantly floats to the surface, the oil is ready.
  4. Working in small batches, drop 1 Tbsp. batter at a time into the warm oil. Don't crowd the pot. When the puffs turn a golden, gently turn them over to cook on the other side. Total cooking time is about 2 min. Using a slotted spoon, remove the puffs to a paper towel-lined plate to drain for a few seconds. If the batter does not puff up in the warm oil, or possibly the sfingi are cooked on the outside but raw in the center, the batter is too thick. Remedy by adding up to 1/4 c. lowfat milk at a time, and retest the batter for proper consistency. If the batter is too thin, add in 1 heaping Tbsp. flour and 1/2 tsp. sugar at a time.
  5. Immediately transfer the puffs to a large bowl and use a sieve to sprinkle generously with confectioners' sugar and cinnamon to taste. Serve warm. They aren't nearly as good cool.
