GREBBEL (FRIED DOUGH)



Grebbel (Fried Dough) image

Grebbel is deep-fried dough, something like a doughnut, which is fried and then served with powdered sugar sprinkled on it, while still warm. It is often eaten at breakfast and is very popular during Oktoberfest. This is an untried recipe (for me) but I've eaten these myself in Germany and they are very tasty. Recipe found on the Volga Germans in Portland, Oregon website, from the "Zion Daughter Cookbook", (Portland, Oregon) by Mrs. Peter Klaus. NOTE: Prep time includes 1-hour rise time for dough.

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/3 cups instant potato flakes
3/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup water
2 packages yeast
3 eggs
2 cups milk
3 1/2 to 4 cups flour.

Steps:

  • Put potatoes, salt, yeast, eggs in food process and blend for 15 seconds. Add one cup flour. Mix. Heat oil, water, and milk to 110 to 115°. Add to processor slowly. It may get too full. (I used my blender. You can mix it by hand in a big bowl. Keeping flour on the fingers will help to keep the dough from sticking to them and any surface you are working on.) Turn out on board or bowl to finish blending. Add flour to make soft dough. After well blended turn out on floured surface and knead. Let rise until double. Divide dough and roll to 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Cut using use a donut cutter. Let rise. Deep fat fry. Donuts will rise when they hit the hot grease.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh, seasonal ingredients will always produce the best results. If possible, use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking grebbel, it's important to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the grebbel from cooking evenly and will make it more likely to stick to the pan.
  • Cook the grebbel in small batches: If you're cooking a large amount of grebbel, it's best to cook it in small batches. This will help to ensure that the grebbel cooks evenly and doesn't stick to the pan.
  • Don't overcook the grebbel: Grebbel is a delicate food, and it's important to not overcook it. Overcooked grebbel will be tough and chewy.
  • Season the grebbel to taste: Grebbel is a versatile food that can be seasoned in many different ways. Some popular seasonings for grebbel include salt, pepper, garlic, and paprika.

Conclusion:

Grebbel is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a main course or a side dish. It's easy to make and can be customized to your own taste.
