A Great Doughnut Made of Masa at Seis Vecinos

[Photograph: Chris Crowley]

Up until last week, if you asked me where to find a quality doughnut in the Bronx I'd scratch my head. Now I can tell you: one of the borough's finest desserts is the Honduran-style Rosquillas el Dulce ($1.50) from Mott Haven's Seis Vecinos .

Rosquillas, a kind of doughnut, are made with masa harina instead of flour. The kitchen also adds cheese—back home, that'd be a Spanish curdled milk product called cuajada—and butter. In Honduras, you'll often find them served with coffee. Here, they make them fresh to order (it takes about 15 minutes) and then drench them in warm molasses. The presentation, as it with all of the dishes at the restaurant, is aspirational with matchsticks of canella and dollops of whipped cream.

The doughnut is beautifully crisp and the inside is soft and buttery. While you won't taste much masa flavor, you'll appreciate the way the donut's insides melt in your mouth. The molasses adds a note of rich caramel to the shell, a welcome, sweet turn from the fried dough.

I know we've all in recovery mood after our national holiday eating bonzanza, but really: what better way is there to start the new year then with fried dough drenched in molasses? I, for one, couldn't ask for more. We can start our juice cleanses a couple weeks late this year.

Cinnamon Rolls Recipe

Cinnamon Rolls Recipe

Cinnamon Rolls

My most favorite festive season is here and nothing beats the warm baking aroma that whiffs through my home on a cold winter morning! Wishing all my dear readers who are celebrating, a blessed Christmas and happy holidays! I have been baking away a good part of the morning and our Christmas breakfast menu included gooey cinnamon rolls, savory muffins with peas and corn, smoked barbeque sausages and stuffed omelette. I enjoyed baking this particular cinnamon rolls recipe that I have adapted from the Pioneer Woman’s food blog. What I love about this recipe is its simplicity, it is eggless, requires only one rise and unbelievably delicious. Warm, fluffy, gooey and super soft buns bursting with aromatic cinnamon flavor!

Cinnamon rolls from scratch ~ Step by step

This ultimate Christmas breakfast did not take me long to bring together as it does not require a lot of preparation. The dough/rolls can be made in advance and refrigerated overnight so that its a breeze to bake the next day morning. Do use a string or dental floss to cut the rolls. You can increase the amount of sugar in your filling to 1 cup if you like your rolls on the sweeter side. The next time I bake them, I will use brown sugar for the filling and flavor the glaze with coffee. Do try this perfect holiday breakfast that is sure to win the hearts of your family and friends.

Eggless Cinnamon Rolls

Cinnamon Rolls Recipe Recipe

Prep time: 60 min

Cook time: 15 min

Yield: 16

Main Ingredients: flour cinnamon

Ingredients

• Milk - 2 cups, approx


• Vegetable oil - 1/2 cup OR melted butter


• Sugar - 1/2 cup


• Active dry yeast - 2 1/4 tsp


• Maida - 4 cups + 1/2 cup to 3/4 cup extra


• Baking powder - 1/2 tsp


• Baking soda - 1/2 tsp


• Salt - 1/2 tbsp


• For filling:


• Butter - 1/2 cup, melted (approx)


• Sugar - 3/4 cup (fine granulated sugar)


• Cinnamon powder - 2 1/2 - 3 tbsps


• For Icing/Glaze:


• Powdered sugar - 1 cup


• Vanilla extract - 1/2 tsp


• Whole milk - 2 tbsps

Method

1. In a large wide stainless steel bowl, add milk, oil and sugar and heat on medium flame for 2 to 3 mts till hot on touch. Turn off flame and allow to cool to luke warm. Sprinkle yeast over this milk mixture and allow to sit for 2 mts.


2. Add 4 cups of flour to the yeast mixture bowl and stir until just combined and cover with a kitchen towel. Set aside in a warm area of your kitchen for at least an hour.


3. After one hour, remove the kitchen towel and add the baking powder, baking soda, salt, and the remaining 1/2 cup flour. Mix thoroughly and and add a little more flour if necessary. Now the dough is ready to prepare rolls.


4. Preheat the oven to 190 C. To prepare the rolls, dust your work surface with a generous amount of flour and roll the dough into a large thick rectangle, approx 30" X10" in size. Refer the picture above.


5. To prepare the filling, pour 3/4 cup of melted butter over the surface of the dough and use your fingers to smear the butter all over. Sprinkle cinnamon powder all over followed by 3/4 cup of sugar.


6. Now, slowly roll the rectangle tightly towards you using both hands. Roll tight and its alright if the filling oozes. Pinch the ends of the log.


7. Use a string or dental floss to cut 1 1/2" slices off the log. Grease a round or square cake pan and place the slices, being careful not to overcrowd since they will rise. Cover with a kitchen cloth and allow to sit for 20 mts.


8. Remove the kitchen towel and bake the rolls for 15 to 18 mts or until golden brown. Do not over brown them.


9. While the rolls are baking, make the icing. In a bowl, add the powdered sugar, vanilla extract and milk and mix together until smooth. You may replace the milk with cream or coffee. For a thicker glaze, you can add more powdered sugar.


10. Once the rolls have baked, remove the pan from the oven and immediately drizzle icing over the top and all around the edges. Serve warm.

Tips

• After Step 4, you can use the dough right away, or refrigerate for up to 2-3 days, punching down the dough if it rises to the top of the bowl.


• You can use skimmed milk or whole milk to prepare dough.


• Just before serving, drizzle the cinnamon rolls with glaze.


• String or dental floss works best to cut the rolls into smooth slices.


• I have used an 8" round cake pan and 8"X8" square cake pan.

Daily Rye Bread

by Rod

(Dallas, TX)

This milder, multigrain flour blend still highlights rye flour flavor but creates a bread that easily accompanies many dishes; add a tablespoon of caraway seeds for traditional rye bread flavor. But first try this recipe without the caraway to discover the complementary flavors and moist chewiness.

Tip: This recipe can also be used for rolls (about 6). Store the extras in the freezer and reheat in the microwave.

Ingredients: (more listed in Proof)

• 1 2/3 cups dark rye flour
  


• 1 1/4 cups spelt flour
  


• 1/2 cup bread flour
  


• 3/4 tsp salt
  


• 1/2 cup bread flour for kneading and to coat bread pan

Proof: (20 min.)

• 1 1/2 cups warm water
  


• 2 1/2 tsp active dry yeast
  


• 2 tbsp organic honey
  


• 1/3 cup bread flour
  


• 2 tbsp virgin olive oil

Directions:

In a medium bowl, create a Proof by combining warm water, yeast, honey, and bread flour. Stir, then cover and allow to set 20 min. in a warm place.

In a large bowl, combine rye flour, spelt flour, bread flour, and salt. Cover and set aside.

When Proof has set 20 min., add olive oil and stir to combine. Pour into flour mixture, stir with a large spoon, then knead 5 min. with a large wooden spoon. Cover and allow to rise 30 min. in a warm place.

Lightly oil a large bread pan, then sprinkle it with flour for use during the final rise. Tap pan to remove excess flour.

After the first rise, sprinkle flour onto a flat surface, remove dough from bowl and knead 5-10 min., adding sprinkles of flour to keep dough from sticking to hands and surface.

Form dough into a flat roll with more height than width and place in bread pan. Cover with plastic wrap or a damp cloth and allow to rise 45 min. to 1 hour in a warm place.

15 min. before baking, turn on oven to 350 degrees. Remove cover from dough and bake about 45 min. Serve while warm, then slice, cover and refrigerate any remaining bread.

Notes:

1) Add 2 tbsp flax meal to flour mixture to add flavor depth and increase nutritional fiber.

2) Sprinkle 1 tbsp caraway seeds on dough during final knead for traditional rye bread flavor.

3) Try with garlic butter: combine a 7oz container of Butter with Olive Oil, 3/4 tsp garlic granules, and 1/4 cup dried parsley, then refrigerate overnight.

How to Make Chapati Dough (Roti Dough) in a Food Processor

I have been using my Kitchenaid stand mixer for making roti dough for a couple years now and would argue that buying one just for this is probably worth it. One of my least favourite activities in the kitchen is making chapati dough from scratch and anyway, I am all for technology taking over to make our lives simpler. Recently, I did a poll on my Facebook Page to see what people thought of a food processor and whether I really needed one. An overwhelming number of 'ayes' later, I am now a few hundred dollars poorer and richer by one Magimix. The review of the food processor itself is for another post but today let's look at how to make chapati dough in a food processor.

A few things before we start:

• It's important to have a powerful enough motor to be able to knead dough since it's a 'tough' job for a machine. Make sure you check manufacturer's manual to make sure if you can make dough in your food processor


• Keep all ingredients ready before you begin


• I usually add a bit more water to the dough than needed, for smoother kneading, and then dust more flour and finish the final knead by hand

HOW TO MAKE CHAPATI DOUGH IN FOOD PROCESSOR

Preparation time: 10 minutes

Makes enough dough for 7 chapatis



INGREDIENTS:

1.5 cups of atta / Indian whole wheat flour

~ 1/3 cup of water

1/2 tsp of salt (or to taste)

2 tsp of oil, ghee, or butter



INSTRUCTIONS:



1. Make sure your food processor comes with a dough blade. It will have blunt edges but will look the same as your regular chopping blade.

2. Add the atta + salt to the largest bowl in your processor (in case it comes with multiple bowls - mine has three).

3. Close the lid and start the machine. If there are speed settings, start at the lowest speed to make sure the salt is mixed properly with the flour. With the machine running, add water in a slow trickle through the opening on the lid. Adjust water according to how much you need. This depends on the flour quality, consistency, humidity where you live, etc.

You will start to see the dough forming slowly as you add water. Stop and go so you are able to control the dough consistency. It's very easy to add more water so be careful!

4. Soon you will find the dough forming into a ball and 'cleaning' up the sides of the bowl. Add oil at this stage and let it run for a minute longer.

Done! The dough will be a bit sticky if you'd added the right amount of water. Take out, punch down, dust more flour if required, and let it rest for about 30 mins before proceeding to make chapati, roti, paratha, etc.

You can make pizza dough, bread dough, and even pie crust in your food processor. The method is pretty much the same, except that you would add the ingredients as necessary for what you are making. I plan to try pizza dough next and will update you on how that went.



You can also scale the quantities according to the capacity of your food processor bowl to make chapati / roti dough in bulk and store it in refrigerator up to 2 days for later use.
