Quicker Baked Potato

Try this method for speeding up the potato baking process (for a better texture than those that you microwave). Pre-heat the oven to 400. Place the potato in boiling water for 10 minutes. Bake for 30 minutes. This will cut the cooking time in half.

 

Beinets Or French Fritters


breads, french, brunch

1 tablespoon butter
6 tablespoon all-purpose flour
4 eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 confectioner's sugar

These are as light as air. Heat deep fat to 370 degrees. Combine water, butter and flour in a saucepan and boil (stirring constantly) over low heat for about 5 minutes. Remove pan from heat and beat in one at a time, the eggs. Beat the batter for about 3 minutes AFTER each egg. Add the vanilla and drop the batter from a teaspoon into the hot fat. Cook until golden, drain and dust with the confectioner's sugar To be good these must be delicate in flavor, therefore the frying fat must be impeccable. If you fry in the usual bland cooking oil, heat it to 365-70 degrees and cook the batter until almost golden. If you use butter or part butter for frying, start frying with the fat at 330 degrees and let the heat rise over a 7 minute period to 360. Be sure to bring the heat of the fat DOWN to 330 again between cookings. SOURCE; JOY OF COOKING; author Irma S.
