Hi there!

Does anyone know exactly what a funnel cake is?
I'm not sure about the spelling...

Thanks in advance!

Yes, funnel cake comes from the Amish in Pennsylvania, where I'm from originally.

You make a thin batter (just flour, eggs, milk, and not much else) and pour it gently in circles into hot oil (a deep fat fryer or just a pot on your stove), take it out and drain it, and then usually you put powdered sugar on top. It comes out like this: funnel cake.

It's terrible for you and tastes great.

Funnel cakes are made by pouring batter through a funnel into hot oil in a circular pattern and deep fryingit until golden-brown. They are often served with powdered sugar, jam or other toppings.

Es una variante de los 'churros'. Se prepara una masa casi liquida que luego se pone en un embudo (funnel). Se exprime el embudo, es echo de tela con punta de plástico, el contenido, las pasta, cae al aceite caliente (como los churros). Al salir del aceite se les echa azúcar y un poco de harina. Los españoles, (mi esposa en española, hace los churros españoles de la misma manera pero sin azúcar. De cualquier manera, son todos deliciosos. En México, los churros son hechos igual, pero los cortan en tiras de largas como de 20 cm. Y mas gruesas, y se sirven con azúcar.

Funnel cake= churros

Cheers!

Buen provecho
