Crisp Rosettes Food

ROSETTES

Steps:

• In a small bowl, beat eggs and sugar; stir in milk and vanilla. Combine flour and salt; gradually add to batter until smooth., Heat 2-1/2 in. of oil to 375° in a deep-fat fryer or electric skillet. Place rosette iron in hot oil, then dip in batter, three-fourths up the sides of iron (do not let batter run over top of iron). Immediately place in hot oil; loosen rosette with fork and remove iron. , Fry rosettes, a few at a time, until golden brown, 1-2 minutes on each side. Remove to paper towel-lined wire racks. Repeat with remaining batter. , For icing, combine the confectioners' sugar, vanilla and enough water to achieve a dipping consistency. Dip edges of rosettes into icing; let dry on wire racks.

ROSETTES I

Steps:

• Combine eggs, sugar and salt; beat well. Add remaining ingredients and beat until smooth.
• Heat a rosette iron in deep, hot oil (375 degrees) for 2 minutes.
• Drain excess oil from iron. Dip in batter to 1/4 inch from the top of the iron, then dip iron immediately into hot oil (375 degrees).
• Fry rosette until golden, about 30 seconds. Lift out; tip upside down to drain. With fork, push rosette off iron onto a rack placed over paper towels.
• Reheat iron 1 minute; make next rosette.
• Sprinkle rosettes with confectioners' sugar.

ROSETTES RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a medium bowl , whisk together the eggs, milk, and vanilla extract until well combined.
• Sift together the flour, granulated sugar, and salt.
• Whisk the dry ingredients into the wet ingredients until well combined. The batter should have the consistency of heavy cream. Refrigerate, covered, for two hours so the batter can fully hydrate. Also, this will assure crispier cookies.
• If using a double-prong iron, use a medium, heavy-duty deep skillet, preferably straight sided, or other medium deep heavy-duty pot. If using a single-prong iron, use a small heavy-duty deep skillet, preferably straight sided, or other small deep heavy-duty pot. Heat 2- to 2 1/2-inches of oil on medium-high heat until it reaches 360 F to 365 F.
• Pour the batter into a shallow 9-inch cake pan or pie plate. This will make it easier to dip the rosette iron. Submerge the rosette iron into the hot oil to heat for 15 seconds.
• Blot the iron molds on paper towels to remove excess oil.
• Carefully dip the heated rosette iron into the batter so that the batter covers the bottom and comes halfway up the sides of the iron, but does not cover the top.
• Submerge the batter-coated iron completely in the oil (the oil will bubble), being sure not to touch the bottom of the pot. Within 30 to 45 seconds, you will be able to remove the rosette from the iron using a metal or wooden or chopstick.
• Continue to fry until the rosette is golden brown and crisp, about 30 seconds more. Flip the rosette over, if necessary, to allow the other side to become lightly brown.
• Remove from pan with your chopstick and allow to drain and cool, inverted with the hollow side down on paper towels. Repeat the process until all the rosettes are fried, being sure the oil is at the proper temperature, and that the irons are heated in the oil and blotted on paper towels each time before dipping into the batter.
• Sift the confectioners' sugar and the cinnamon together. After the rosettes have cooled, sprinkle with the cinnamon-sugar mixture and serve.

CRISPY NORWEGIAN BOWS

Steps:

• Beat egg yolks and granulated sugar until pale yellow. Add cream and cardamom; mix well. Gradually add flour until dough is firm enough to roll., On a lightly floured surface, roll into a 15-in. square. Using a pastry wheel or knife, cut into 15x1-1/2-in. strips; cut diagonally at 2-1/2-in. intervals. In the center of each diamond, make a 1-in. slit; pull one end through slit., In an electric skillet or deep-fat fryer, heat oil to 375°. Fry bows, a few at a time, until golden brown on both sides, 20-40 seconds. Drain on paper towels. Dust with confectioners' sugar.

SCANDINAVIAN ROSETTES

Steps:

• Whisk together eggs, granulated sugar, milk, and vanilla in a large bowl, then add flour and salt, whisking, until just combined (do not overmix, or cookies will blister).
• Heat oil in a 3- to 4-quart heavy saucepan with rosette iron in it until thermometer registers 370 to 375°F. Carefully lift out iron, letting oil drip off into pan. Dip all but top edge of iron into batter 3 seconds, then submerge iron in oil and fry (batter adhering to iron) until golden, 35 to 40 seconds (do not let go of iron; cookie will shatter if it hits bottom of saucepan). Lift out iron, letting oil drip off, and, working over paper towels, carefully pry off rosette with a fork. Let rosette drain, hollow side down, on paper towels, then make more rosettes in same manner, heating iron in oil 10 seconds before dipping it into batter each time.
• Dust rosettes with confectioners sugar before serving.
• Available at some specialty bakeware shops and Sweet Celebrations (800-328-6722).

ROSETTES

Steps:

• Add sugar to slightly beaten eggs, then add milk.
• Sift flour before measuring, then together with salt.
• Stir into first mixture until batter is smooth and about the consistency of heavy cream.
• Add flavoring.
• Heat fat or oil to 370°F in a deep kettle.
• If you do not have a thermometer, put a small piece of bread into fat and count to sixty.
• Bread should brown.
• Dip your iron into hot fat to heat it and drain excess fat on absorbent paper.
• Dip heated iron into batter to about 3/4 its height.
• If iron is properly heated and drained the batter will coat the iron.
• If batter does not adhere the iron is too cool or greasy.
• Plunge batter-coated iron quickly into the hot fat and cook from two to three minutes or until active bubbling ceases.
• Invert iron over fat to drain fat off, then remove rosette from iron onto absorbent paper, inverting rosette to drain completely.
• Your rosette should be crisp as soon as it is slightly cool.
• If it is not, your fat may be too cool.
• If rosette does not drop off form easily, rap the form sharply with a knife handle to jar it loose.
• While still warm, sprinkle with confectioners sugar.
• Crevices may also be filled with raspberry jam (or your favorite) prior to coating with the sugar.

ROSETTES

Steps:

• In deep medium bowl, beat granulated sugar, the salt and eggs with electric mixer on medium speed. Beat in 2 tablespoons oil, the water and flour until smooth. In 3-quart saucepan, heat oil (2 to 3 inches) to 400°F.
• Heat rosette iron by placing in hot oil 1 minute. Tap excess oil from iron on paper towels. Dip hot iron into batter just to top edge (don't go over top). Fry about 30 seconds or until golden brown. Immediately remove rosette; invert onto paper towels to cool. (If rosette is not crisp, batter is too thick; stir in a small amount of water or milk.)
• Heat iron in hot oil and tap on paper towels before making each rosette. (If iron is not hot enough, batter will not stick.) Sprinkle with powdered sugar just before serving or drizzle with chocolate glaze.
• To make chocolate glaze, in 2-cup microwavable measuring cup, place chocolate chips, butter and corn syrup. Microwave uncovered on Medium 1 to 2 minutes or until chocolate can be stirred smooth. Drizzle glaze over rosettes.
