Aren't these beautiful? I took this picture at a place that makes them just around the corner from my apartment--well 8 blocks away--same thing. The dough is wrapped around a wooden pin and baked over a fire, so they're hollow and soft on the inside and lightly sweet and crunchy on the outside. Called
kurtoskalacs, they originated in Hungary. People used to bring them to weddings where they were enjoyed along with homemade brandy. Now where's my snifter?
