Anyone Knw wher i could find Zeppole in OC, w/out the custard or nething...just the plain fried thing w/ sugr?!
but you could try making them. not hard:
Ingredients
2 cups water
10 oz granulated sugar
3 tbs olive oil
1/2 tsp salt
2 cups flour
2 large eggs
1/4 cup light, white wine
oil for frying
powdered sugar
Directions
Mix water, sugar, and oil in a heavy saucepan and bring to a boil.
Mix flour into boiling water all at once.
Remove from heat and begin whisking or stirring with a wooden spoon until the mixture forms a mass.
Return to low heat and cook 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
Remove from heat, and add
eggs 1 at a time. Beat vigorously after each addition or the egg will cook.
Add wine and beat the dough until satiny.
Grease a
countertop or board with oil.
Turn out the dough and pat down flat.
Fold sides over on itself so there are 3 layers. Repeat this five more times.
Heat oil in a large pot or fryer.
Take about 1/3 of dough
and roll out in a log, to the thickness of your thumb. Pinch off a tsp size piece.
Place 3 or 4 at a time into boiling oil.
Turn and fry until golden on both sides.
Drain on brown paper.
Place into a paper bag and sprinkle powdered sugar over them. Close the bag and shake to cover with sugar.
Note: Some cooks like to form the zeppole into rings, more like a donut. You can add ground sage, ground bay leaf, and other savory seasonings to the batter. Instead of using white wine, try Amaretto liquor or Marsala wine.
