[Sca-cooks] OOP Frying Question

[Elaine Koogler]

This reminds me of the Daifur, or Braided Bread, that we served at our
recent ME event.  The two major differences are that this is made with
semolina flour and the dough is braided before frying, rather than put into
a pretzel shape.  The recipe for this can be found in the file about the
event that I put up on the SCA Cooks Yahoogroups site.  It can also be found
in Cariadoc's Miscellany, on the Web.  However, if anyone wants a separate
copy, let me know.  It was a howling success at our event...folks were
meeting the servers at the door before they could even get to the mezze
table!  It is, however, quite labor-intensive, but we felt that it was well
worth it!
