Chruściki (Chrusty or Faworki) image

Chruściki, faworki, chrusty or angel wings are traditional donuts prepared in Poland during the carnival period until Fat Thursday.

Provided by Vera Abitbol

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h35m

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 cups all-purpose flour (, sifted)
1 teaspoon baking powder
5 egg yolks
6 tablespoons heavy cream
2 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon sugar
2 pinches salt
1 tablespoon alcohol of your choice ((or white vinegar))
4 cups vegetable oil
Icing sugar (, or sugar (for sprinkling))

Steps:

  • On a work surface, mix the baking powder, sugar and flour.
  • Make a well in the center and add the eggs, cream, salt, butter, and alcohol.
  • Knead until reaching a smooth and homogeneous dough, about 10 minutes.
  • Wrap the dough with plastic wrap and let stand for 2 hours at room temperature.
  • On a lightly floured surface, knead the dough vigorously (incorporate 1 to 2 tablespoons of flour if the dough sticks too much) and roll it with a rolling pin to a thickness of ⅛ inch (6mm) (or thinner for crispier chruściki).
  • Using a pastry wheel or knife, cut rectangles of about 2x1 inch (5 x 2,5 cm) and make an incision in the center of each rectangle. Take each rectangle and spread the incision to move one of its two smaller sides in this incision.
  • Here is a video that will help you.
  • Deep fry in a oil preheated at 350 F / 170 c, turning chruściki halfway through cooking until very golden brown about 1 minute per side. Fry a few pieces at a time without overcrowding.
  • Drain and place on a plate covered with paper towels. Roll in powdered sugar or sugar.

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Eastern European     Polish

Time 1h30m

Yield 40

Number Of Ingredients 9

12 egg yolks
1 egg
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon whiskey
2 ½ cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 quart vegetable oil for frying
1 cup confectioners' sugar for dusting

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, whisk egg yolks, egg, sugar, salt, vanilla, and whiskey. Stir in 2 cups of the flour. If dough is sticky, add the rest of the flour. Knead dough for 5 minutes; divide into three parts. Keep dough pieces covered with plastic wrap until ready to use.
  • Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Or, alternately, melt 2 pounds lard(see Editor's Note). Oil should be about 1 inch deep.
  • On a lightly floured surface, roll out one piece of the dough until it's paper-thin. Cut into parallelogram (long diamond) shapes, and use a sharp paring knife to cut a slot in the centers. Pull one point of the diamond through the slot; set aside and repeat with remaining pieces.
  • Fry 2 to 4 pieces at a time, depending on the size of your pan, about 5 to 10 seconds on each side. The cookies should not be browned. Remove from oil and drain on paper towels; dust with confectioners' sugar when cool. Store any remaining cookies in an airtight container.

CHRUSCIKI WITH MRS. KOSTYRA



Chrusciki with Mrs. Kostyra image

These crisp, sugar-dusted Polish cookies made with twists of dough quickly fried in hot oil are also known as angels' wings or bow ties. Martha likes to stack a tower of chrusciki on a pressed-glass cake stand, largest chrusciki first, to make a Christmas-tree formation.

Yield Makes about 6 dozen cookies

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, melted
2 large eggs
5 large egg yolks
1/4 cup granulated sugar
3 tablespoons sour cream
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon orange extract
1 teaspoon lemon extract
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon white distilled vinegar
1 tablespoon rum
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
1 tablespoon grated orange zest
2 to 3 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
7 cups (3 pounds) vegetable shortening, for deep-frying
Sifted confectioners' sugar, for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Put melted butter, eggs, egg yolks, granulated sugar, sour cream, salt, extracts, vinegar, and rum in the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until mixture is pale, about 3 minutes. With mixer running, add zests. Reduce speed to low, and gradually add up to 3 cups flour, 1/2 cup at a time, until a fairly stiff dough forms.
  • Turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface, and knead, dusting with flour if it seems sticky, until dough becomes smooth, soft, and elastic, about 10 minutes. Halve dough, and wrap each piece in plastic wrap. Let dough rest at room temperature, 30 minutes.
  • Working with 1 piece at a time, roll out dough on a lightly floured surface until very thin (about 1/16 inch thick). Using a straightedge as a guide, cut the dough into 5-by-1 1/4-inch strips. Trim ends on the diagonal.
  • Lay dough strips vertically in front of you, and cut a 1 1/4-inch-long opening through the middle of each strip. Working with one strip at a time, push one end through the cut, then pull through to make a bow-tie shape. Transfer formed chrusciki to a large parchment-lined baking sheet, and cover with a clean, slightly damp kitchen towel. Repeat process with remaining dough.
  • Heat shortening in a large (6-quart) pot over medium-high heat until it registers 375 degrees on a deep-fry thermometer.
  • Working in small batches of about 7, fry chrusciki, turning once with a slotted spoon, until lightly browned, about 1 minute. Transfer fried chrusciki with slotted spoon to two paper-towel-lined baking sheets to drain. (Adjust heat between batches as necessary to keep oil at a steady temperature.)
  • Just before serving, dust chrusciki with confectioners' sugar.
