Baranki and Purple Hood on Teapot
A photo from a cafe in Bishkek. I liked very much the stylish purple hood on the tea-pot and the delicious look of the russian cookies baranki.
The hood is used for keeping the tea-pot warm while the tea gets dark and ready be consumed.
Here is a recipe I found about Baranki:
Ingredients
8 eggs
1/2 cup oil
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 tsp salt
3 cups flour
1/2 cup sugar
Directions
Separate eggs. Cream egg yolks and sugar well, slowly add oil and vanilla and salt, mix well. Beat egg whites and add to the creamed egg yolk mixture. Gradually add flour until dough forms, you may need to add more than the 3 cups indicated above.
To make obaranki: roll dough between your hands to make a rope and twist together and form a circle.
Boil water: add obaranki and cook for about 5 minutes. Drain on a clean tea towel until all water drains off.
Put on cookie sheet, egg wash the obaranki and sprinkle poppyseeds on top. Turn oven on to 425 and bake the obaranki for 15 minutes. Turn oven down to 375 and bake for about 45 – 50 minutes. Until they are baked well. |
