Here are some products to enhance the Chanukah kitchen experience, as well as serving as nice gifts for this time of year
A | Doughnut Shaper Okay, here’s how to, and how not to, make doughnuts. I’ve tried many doughnuts in my day, and I’ve proven successful and unsuccessful simultaneously. My success? The recipe I use for my doughnuts. I buy pizza dough and fry it. And don’t worry about the sweetness; you add confectioners’ sugar or a simple glaze, and it’s perfectly sweet. But when I throw a ball of dough into the oil, it always comes out gooey in the middle. My next attempt is with the second batch, when I fry it for longer. Lo and behold, the inside is nice and fluffy (yay), but the outside is as hard as a coconut shell. That’s why I advise buying this doughnut shaper for successful doughnut making.
