CHRUśCIKI (CHRUSTY OR FAWORKI)



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.

CHRUśCIKI, CHRUSTY, FAWORKI: POLISH-STYLE ANGEL WINGS



Chruściki, Chrusty, Faworki: Polish-style Angel Wings image

Provided by Polonist

Categories     Polish Desserts

Time 56m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2.5 cups soft wheat/pastry flour (10.5 oz, 300 g), can be replaced with all-purpose flour
½ teaspoon caster/superfine sugar
¼ teaspoon salt
4 egg yolks
1 tablespoon vodka or 6% distilled vinegar (spirit/white vinegar)
5 heaped tablespoons sour cream (approx. 125 grams)
2 cups (500 ml) lard or neutral cooking oil; for frying
¼ cup (25 g) powdered/icing sugar; for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Sift flour, caster sugar and salt into a bowl. Add egg yolks, vodka and sour cream.
  • Knead together by hand (grease your hands first!), or use a stand mixer with a dough hook. Form a smooth dough ball.Pro tip: Some recipes suggest placing a dough ball into a bowl, covering it with a cloth (or cling film) and resting it for 45-60 minutes in the refrigerator. By some accounts, the resting time improves dough plasticity. That said, this recipe was tested without resting, and it worked out just fine.
  • Move the dough onto the worktop. Begin folding the dough over itself, giving a quarter-turn of the dough between each fold.
  • "Beat up" the dough on each side with a rolling pin, the more violent you are - the better. As you do this, you will feel the dough become pliable and and easier to work with. Traditional recipes call for at least 20 minutes of such treatment, but let's be realistic here - try to do as much as you can.Pro tip: Do you own a meat grinder? Push the dough through 3 times, using the largest holes. Anecdotally, this process allows to skip the whole "dough beating" described above.
  • Lightly dust the worktop with flour. Divide the dough into 2 or 3 equal parts, and roll one of them out - as thinly as possible. If you own a pasta maker, it will provide very useful here. Cover the remaining dough parts with a cloth, to prevent it from drying out.
  • Using a knife or a pizza/pasta cutter wheel, cut out long strips, approx. 1.2-1.5'' (3-4 cm) wide. Then, cut them into shorter pieces - around 3.5-4'' (9-10 cm) long - cut straight or diagonally at the ends.
  • Make a 0.8'' (2 cm) incision in the middle of each strip. Then pull one end through that hole to form a bow. Grab the ends, shake and pull them gently and set aside. Continue until you're out of strips.
  • In a wide cooking pot or a large, deep skillet, heat up lard or neutral cooking oil. If you own a kitchen thermometer, aim for 350-355°F (180°C). If you don't, throw in a small piece of dough - if it rises and flows, that means it's hot enough.
  • Fry only a few chruściki at a time, until they turn lightly golden - around 30-60 seconds per side. Watch them like a hawk, they're fried very quickly.
  • Retrieve faworki with a slotted spoon and onto a paper towel. Dust them generously with icing sugar, as soon as possible. Don't wait for them to cool completely, sugar tends to stick better to warm pastries.

CHRUSCIKI I



Chrusciki I image

This is the Polish version of angel wings.

Provided by Sue Peters

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.

POLISH ANGEL WINGS-CHRUSCIKI



Polish Angel Wings-Chrusciki image

This is a classic Polish cookie that my mom and Bushia used to make at Christmas time. I've found that this is a really hard dough to work with, but it is from the original Polish recipe translated into English. These are not really sweet cookies, but they get most of their sweetness from the powdered sugar on the outside.

Provided by Bippie

Categories     Dessert

Time 1h

Yield 50 cookies

Number Of Ingredients 7

5 tablespoons cream
5 egg yolks
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sugar
2 1/4 cups flour, plus
1 teaspoon vanilla
powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Beat eggs until thick.
  • Add salt slowly while stirring.
  • Add sugar and vanilla, beat well.
  • Add cream and flour, alternating until blended. You may need more than the flour listed above depending on how humid it is that day.
  • Turn onto a floured board.
  • Cover with a cloth for 10 minutes.
  • Knead until dough blisters.
  • Roll very thin.
  • Cut into 1 inch by 4 inch rectangles.
  • Cut a gash in the middle of the rectangle and pull one end through so it looks like a twist.
  • Fry in 375 degree oil until golden brown.
  • Drain on a rack for 3 minutes then roll into powdered sugar.

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.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cookie Recipes

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.

CHRUSCIKI - POLISH ANGEL WING COOKIES



Chrusciki - Polish Angel Wing Cookies image

This delightful pastry was made by my Polish Grandmother every year for Christmas. Traditionally they were made for the last Thursday before Lent. They take a while to make but the time you put in to making these is well worth the reward!

Provided by Chef Shilale

Categories     Dessert

Time 2h30m

Yield 72 cookies, 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 eggs, whole (room temperature)
4 egg yolks (room temperature)
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 -3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar (plus a little more for dusting)
1/4 cup butter (room temperature)
1 1/2 ounces brandy (one shot)
deep frying oil (I like to use lard for these)

Steps:

  • Using a stand mixer, whisk whole eggs, egg yolks, butter and salt until thick and lemon colored.
  • Slowly beat in the confectioner's sugar and brandy.
  • Change to the dough hook and slowly mix in the flour a 1/4 cup at a time until the dough forms and pulls away from the bowl.
  • Using the dough hook, knead the dough for 3-5 minutes. It should be thick like bread dough.
  • Keep the dough in the bowl covered with a damp towel to keep it from drying out.
  • Snip off a baseball sized piece of dough. On a floured surface, roll to 1/8 inch thick at the most!
  • Using a sharp knife cut the dough into 1 1/2 inch wide strips. Then cut the other way in a diagonal to make pieces of dough that are about 1 1/2 X 4 inches.
  • Next use your knife to cut a slit in the center of each piece.
  • To form the wing shape, take one pointy end and poke it through the slit. Very gently pull the end through the slit to form a bow shaped cookie.
  • In a heavy pot or deep skillet, heat the fat of choice (I like lard) to 350°F Use a thermometer!
  • Drop the cookies, 3 cookies at a time, into the fat. Drop 3 cookies at once not 1 at a time. The cookies will sink to the bottom at first then they will puff up and float a couple of seconds later. As soon as this happens use a couple of forks to turn them.
  • Immediately after you turn them use a deep fry strainer to remove them from the fat to drain on brown paper bags.
  • Dust the still hot cookies with confectioner's sugar and repeat, cooking 3 cookies at a time until finished.
  • Store in tightly covered, wax paper-lined tins.
