Traditionally, Chrusciki (hrrooss-CHEE-kee) are associated with the pre-Lenten feasting of Mardi Gras. In America, chrusciki or Polish crullers are served at any special occasion. Ingredients 5 large egg yolks, at room temperature* 1 large whole egg, at room temperature 1/2 tsp. salt 1/4 cup confectioners' sugar 1/4 cup sour cream (or heavy cream) 1 tsp. vanilla extract 1 Tbsp. rum or brandy 2 cups all-purpose flour Canola or vegetable oil Confectioners' sugar for dusting Preparation: Combine egg yolks, whole egg and salt in bowl of mixer. Beat at high speed until thick and lemon colored, about 5 minutes. Beat in sugar, sour cream or cream, vanilla and rum. Add flour gradually to form a cohesive dough. This dough is very soft. Add just enough flour so the dough is no longer sticky. Turn dough out onto a floured board, divide in half, cover with plastic wrap and let rest for at least 20 minutes. Working with half of the dough at a time, roll out to 1/8-inch thickness. These are best when the dough is paper thin. Cut into 1 x 3 inch wide strips. Heat 2 inches of oil in a large, deep skillet to 350 degrees. Make a slit in the center of each strip of dough, then pull one end through the slit to form a bow. Fry about 6 chrusciki at a time for 1 minutes or less per side or until golden. These fry quickly, so watch closely. Drain on paper towels. Dust generously with confectioner's sugar.

Quick Tip Many recipes call for egg yolks only, so you fill your refrigerator with a container of egg whites but, by the time you figure out what to do with them, they've gone bad. This is an easy technique for freezing egg whites. When separating eggs, have an ice cube tray handy. Either separate the egg over the tray, letting the white fall into one compartment only of the tray. Or you can separate the egg over a small bowl and pour the egg white into the tray. Pour only one egg white into each compartment. This will work for small to large eggs. Jumbo egg whites might be too large for the compartments, but most recipes call for large eggs anyway. Place the ice cube tray in the freezer and freeze the egg whites until firm. Pop the egg whites out and transfer them to a zip-top freezer bag and return to the freezer. Now, whenever you need one, two or three egg whites for an egg-white only recipe, you have them, premeasured, at your disposal. Just thaw as many cubes, representing one egg white each, as needed in the refrigerator and use. Egg whites will deliver full volume if they are at room temperature. So, once the egg white is completely thawed in the fridge, let it come to room temperature before whipping. I had posted this recipe on the Mixing Bowl a few years ago and received this lovely comment from a reader. I just had to save it! by mzgrizz Thank you soooo much for posting this recipe!!!! When I was in college, one of my classmates was Polish and we spent an afternoon (when we should have been studying) making Chrusciki - and they were wonderful. More moves than I can count later the recipe and I were separated, but the rememberance of that December afternoon and how good they were has lingered all these years. I had given up ever having this delightful treat again until this morning when my husband and I were taking a leisurely morning to wander through Mixing Bowl together. You have brought great joy to an otherwise grey day! I so appreciate you having shared this, and I hope others have enjoyed it as much as I have. If there was a way to issue spoons here I would definitely give it 10!!! Thanks again.

I know what you're thinking because I was thinking the same thing: where the heck is Kiribati? Is that even a real country?!? But that's all part of this cooking around the world adventure - learning for the entire family. The boys didn't even blink; they just pulled out their atlases and went on the hunt. Some Fun Facts... Kiribati is not a single island. It's comprised of 32 atolls and 1 (actual) island halfway between Hawaii and Australia in the South Pacific Ocean. Kiribati used to span the International Date Line until, in 1995, the government voted to move the line eastward, so that the entire country would occupy the same time zone. With the new millennium in 2000, Kiribati was publicized as the first land on Earth to welcome in the year. Kiribati remains a very traditional culture. Despite colonial occupation, its people continue to thrive on fish, breadfruit and coconut and live in traditional raised thatched dwellings. The I-Kiribati have a traditional dance that emulates the frigate bird's movements. The frigate bird appears on their flag. The dance may be performed in a standing or seated position; either sitting or it is considered bad form to smile while dancing, as dancing is perceived to be a solemn form of storytelling which displays the teller's skill and determination. When I was searching for possible recipes for tonight's dinner, I didn't have much luck. Some articles I read listed foods that were almost identical to Filipino foods. Then I found - on Global Table Adventure, my inspiration for this entire project - a recipe for Roasted Lobster with Coconut Curry Sauce. Roasted Lobster with Coconut Curry Sauce 1 lobster tail per person olive oil 1 14 oz can coconut milk curry powder, turmeric, and ground ginger freshly ground salt Preheat the oven to 350F. Using kitchen shears, cut each lobster tail down the back, stopping at the last segment before the tail piece. Bend back the tail until you hear a loud crack. Slip a knife between the meat and the bottom membrane, freeing tail meat from the shell. Pull the meat up and over the shell, closing the shell shut beneath it. The tail meat, then, piggybacks on top of the shell. This was entirely new to me, but Sasha provides a video if you need more help. Coat the lobster meat with a generous coating of oil. Bake for 1 1/2 minutes per ounce of weight. Meanwhile make the sauce. Place the coconut milk and spices - to your tastes - in the saucepan. Simmer until heated through. Salt to taste. I used this as our appetizer. Seafood Adobo For our main dish, I whipped up a seafood adobo. 1 C of mixed seafood per person + 1 T minced garlic + 1 t ground ginger + 1/2 C vinegar (I used white balsamic) + 3 T soy sauce. Cook that all together until the seafood is opaque. Serve over white rice. And that's a wrap on Kiribati. The Koreas, North and South, are on the list next. I am going to have to do some research to see how distinct the cuisines really are; I might just cook those together.
