Rosettes
Makes about 25
INGREDIENTS
1 cup whole milk
1 large egg
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/8 teaspoon butter vanilla extract
1 cup all purpose flour
Oil for frying
Powdered sugar, for sprinkling
METHOD
1
Preheat peanut oil in Deep Fryer to 365°.
2
In a bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, salt, sugar, vanillas and flour
until smooth. Pour mixture through a fine strainer to ensure that it is
perfectly smooth.
3
Assemble rosette iron with the design you prefer. Heat rosette iron in
Deep Fryer oil for 1 minute to heat and season it. Remove and blot
lightly with a paper towel.
4
Carefully dip rosette iron into batter so that the batter is 3/4 of the
way up the mold. It is important not to cover the mold completely
with batter or it will not cook correctly.
5
Lower battered rosette iron into Deep Fryer oil and submerge for
one minute until it floats free from the iron. Continue cooking until
bottom is brown.
6
Use tongs or a chop stick to carefully turn rosette over to brown
other side.
7
While this one is cooking you can prepare and dip another rosette.
8
When browned on both sides, remove and drain onto absorbent
paper. Sprinkle with powdered sugar while still warm.
