Recipe Introduction


The Italian pastry (Guanti) is usually made for holidays and special occasions.





List of Ingredients



• 3 eggs
  
• 2 tablespoons Crisco, melted
  
• 2 tablespoons milk
  
• 2 tablespoons sugar
  
• 1/4 teaspoon vanilla
  
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
  
• 2 cups flour, sifted
  
• oil or shortening (for frying)
  






Instructions



1. In a large bowl, beat eggs until light, add sugar, milk, Crisco, salt and vanilla, and mix well.
   
2. Beat in flour, until dough is formed.
   
3. Using about 1/4 of the dough at a time, roll dough to wafer thinness on a floured board (or put dough through a pasta machine).
   
4. Using a dough cutting wheel, or knife, cut the dough into strips about 2 1/2 inches wide by 4 inches long.
   
   
5. Continue with remaining dough.
   
6. Deep fry the dough strips in hot oil or Crisco, until lightly golden (about 1-2 minutes).
   
7. Remove from pan and drain on paper towels or brown paper.
   
8. Sprinkle with powdered sugar OR lightly coat with a honey syrup (honey thinned with water) before serving.
