[Sca-cooks] Cookies was hello there

[Tara Sersen Boroson]

I'd love those recipes!  The Kleiner sounds like the cookies that my 
Polish grandmother made, that I can pronounce but not even close to 
spell.  Kruchtiky?  Something like that.  Also called Angel Wings.  They 
were flavored with cardamom and lemon peel, cut in diamonds with a slit 
in the middle, and one corner of the diamond was pulled through the slit 
to make a three-dimensional cookies.  Then they were fried.  Mmm mmm good.

I probably should break out the Kringler (kind of a flaky pie crust affair, brushed with egg white, dusted with sugar) and Kleiner (cardamon flavored deep fried cookie) recipes as well. Both recipes have modern leavening (sometimes a must for me when working late the night before a tourney), but an appearance that could have happened with lots of heavily beaten eggs or yeast. I have an Eastern personna, so who knows conceivably I may have been able to negotiate a slightly better price on Arabic sugar ;o)
