CRUSTOLI
chiccamart.myblog.it

Questa e' la vera ricetta dei crustoli all'antica:

1 chilo di farina di grano duro
1 chilo di farina 00
500 grammi di zucchero
la scorza e il succo di tre arance
1 bicchierino di anice
250 grammi di olio
200 grammi di vino rosso
200 grammi di acqua
una bustina di cannella in polvere
una bustina di chiodi di garofano macinati
3 bustine di lievito bertolini o paneangeli
un bel pizzico di sale
olio per friggere
miele e vino cotto per glassare i crustoli

Impastare tutti gli ingrdienti sopra citati; se l'impasto risulta un po' secco aggiungere un po' di vino o olio.
Quando l'impasto e' ben omogeneo ed elastico, formare dei rotolini grandi all'incirca come un dito, tagliare dei cilindretti di circa 4 centimetri, passarli sui rebbi della forchetta o sull'apposito attrezzo di legno; far riposare un po' e friggere in abbondante olio caldo. Scolarli e tuffarli nel miele caldo mescolato al vino cotto(se l'avete) altrimenti solo miele allungato con un po' d'acqua.

P.S. Occorre circa 1 chilo di miele, versato in una pentola con un po' di acqua (circa un bicchiere), e vino cotto; far scaldare bene e versare i crustoli ancora caldi, girare delicatamente con un mestolo per far aderire tutta la glassatura.
Questi dolcetti tipici del crotonese, sono una meraviglia, questa e' la ricetta antica, la piu' buona.

A Note from Betsy at Recipelink:

Thank you Giovanni, here is the text after running it through Google's translator:

This is' the true recipe for old crustoli:

1 kilo of wheat flour
1 kilo of flour 00
500 grams of sugar
rind and juice of three oranges
1 small glass of aniseed
250 grams of oil
200 grams of red wine
200 grams of water
a bag of cinnamon
a sachet of cloves crushed
3 packets of yeast or bertolini paneangeli
a good pinch of salt
oil for frying
honey and wine cooked to glaze the crustoli

Ingrdienti Mix all the above, if the dough is a little 'dry add a little' wine or oil.
When the dough and 'very smooth and elastic, forming rolls of the size of a finger, cut the cylinder about 4 inches, on the prongs of a fork or pass them on the appropriate tool wood to rest a bit' and fry in abundant hot oil. Drain and plunge into the warm honey mixed with cooked wine (if you have it) otherwise just honey diluted with a little 'of water.

P.S. It takes about 1 pound of honey, poured into a pan with a bit 'of water (about one cup) and boiled wine, to warm up well and pay crustoli still warm, turn gently with a wooden spoon to join all the frosting.
These cupcakes are typical of Crotone, are a wonder, this and 'the old recipe, the most' good.
