Brushwood

The brushwood comes out simply excellent - tender, light, airy, crispy. I happily looked through all four pages with recipes for this dish, but I didn’t have anything like it. Unlike the recipes already on the website, I do not use yeast, sour cream, drink, vodka and other ingredients. In fact, everything is simpler than usual. Products made from this dough do not absorb oil when frying.

Chicken brush

I am an entrepreneur-accountant. Came from clients. I’m sitting here “riveting” VAT reports, as well as pension reports. I send it by email, the receipts have arrived. Hurray, July is “closed”. And here the beloved calls: “Food home!” Everything is great, in half an hour my husband will be home! STOP. But what should you feed him with? So, there is soup, and his favorite stewed cabbage too. WHAT ABOUT THE MEAT?! 5 minutes to turn off the computer and put away the documents (he needs to come home, not to the office), 10 minutes to run out into the street to buy something “mouse” (we are cats according to the horoscope and our daughter is also a cat, because We love “Mausco”). And there are 15 minutes left to make it. Well, this is where I take out another lifesaver from the “bins”. I don't remember where I got this recipe from. Maybe she even made it up herself. But it’s delicious and quickly prepared. Sorry, but I didn’t have time to create step-by-step photos. Moreover, the chicken is cooked without oil, so the dish is completely dietary.

You won’t surprise anyone with cookies like this, but try to knead the dough in a bread machine and the result will amuse you very much - the dough comes out completely different - not like when kneading by hand. This recipe is quite ancient, I think it is 100 years old or so. I have my grandmother’s book, although it doesn’t have a cover, and I don’t understand its title; it contains interesting and easy recipes. The book was written by an old Russian from ъ. In our family, brushwood was prepared only according to it.

Brushwood

It's mind-blowing that I haven't posted the brushwood recipe until now. I am correcting this misunderstanding. I became acquainted with this delicacy at my friend’s birthday, in my deepest childhood. His grandmother was absolutely delicious in preparing everything related to sweets, I remember it very well. At our house, my mother immediately refused to cook brushwood, citing the lack of ability to prepare sweet powder. No sooner said than done! I made an agreement with my friend’s parents and rented a coffee grinder from them to grind sugar. Here the mother could not get away with it. Naturally, at the moment, nothing is stopping me from frying this delicacy for my own family, especially since its recipe is much simpler than almost everyone thinks. Well, I have one secret that I will share below.

Ingredients:

Types of brushwood:

Making brushwood:

Take a huge bowl and break the eggs into it. Add a little flour. Pour out the required amount of salt. Pour out the vodka.

Mix the batter. While adding flour, bring the dough to a stiff mixture so that it does not stick to your hands.

Cover the dough with the bowl in which it was kneaded and let stand for 30 minutes. Roll out a narrow sheet, transparent in the literal sense of the word. Cut the sheet into rectangles, diamonds, you can cut out rounds.

Create various complicated and not so complicated products. Frankly speaking, I absolutely prefer to fry just strips, it still turns out delicious. Therefore, I leave aesthetic delights to your conscience. Heat vegetable oil to a temperature of 170 degrees Celsius. This roughly corresponds to the average heating of the stove.

Deep fry the brushwood until it turns a beautiful golden color. Frying time should be about a minute. If it cooks too quickly, the oil is too hot and it will burn and not be crispy. If the oil is very cool, then the brushwood takes a long time to fry and does not stratify very well. Based on these signs, you can achieve a good oil temperature. Place the fried brushwood on a paper towel or napkin to drain any remaining oil. Sprinkle hot brushwood with sweet powder; for this it is very convenient to use a sieve.

And I completely forgot about the secret I promised. When I have some dough left over for dumplings, you can find the recipe here. Either the dough is from dumplings, then I make that brushwood from it. It turns out very tasty. This recommendation can be considered as another test recipe.

As soon as I managed to fry the firewood, the children arrived from the dacha. I hesitated a little while I was sorting things out, something else. And they drank tea. In the end, I only managed to eat two twigs. So this dish is special, rapidly disappearing. Bon appetit.
