Tippaleipä are served for Vapu , the Finnish celebration on the First of May. The Finnish drink, eat and dance, ;probably because they are happy that the long winter is over. Kind of reminds me of funnel cake. I have no idea how many 'nests' this makes. Ingredients:
300 g flour |
1 cup milk |
1/2 teaspoon yeast |
1 tablespoon sugar |
2 eggs |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
icing sugar |
Directions:
1. Mix flour, milk, yeast, sugar, eggs and salt and beat for a few minutes. 2. Cover the bowl with a cloth and allow the batter to rise for one hour. 3. Heat oil for deep frying. 4. Use a piping bag and pipe the batter in the oil in the form of a bird's nest. 5. Fry the nests until golden brown and sprinkle them with icing sugar. |
