    Punuahu Malasadas, Sweet Hawaii


    malasadas+02 Punuahu Malasadas, Douceurs dHawaïi

    In immigrant from the Azores to Hawaii from 1878 to work in sugar plantations, the Portuguese did not fail to carry with them their rich and varied cuisine, including two pastries become essential for the island: pao doce which I have already spoken and the massacres of filhos or malassadas. Initially, the malassadas - small donuts round pulp rich - were made by the Portuguese immigrants specifically for Mardi Gras just before Lent and often distributed in all the plantations, a practice so popular today that even took the name Malasada Day in Hawaii.
    Yet it was not until the market in 1952, at the opening of the Leonard's bakery that malasadas have gained unprecedented popularity and have become standards for which tourists as the premises are ready to to line up any day of the year. But bakeries in Hawaii are not the only ones to make the malasadas to honor another of the island, the carnival of Punuahu School (which was released on Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama for the story ) is proud to raise funds for the school in part through the production and sale on the spot almost 85,000 malasadas in two days, say their popularity!

    Even the heads are just as creative and compete to offer on their card more modern versions of malasadas: thickets of lilikoi curd (Maracuja), scented creams, coconut or guava.
    If you plan to go to Hawaii one day, you can not miss this classic but in the meantime, here are what make the sun in your kitchen: I assure you that you do not serz disappointed. Someone malasadas says it was "paradise wrapped in dreams air, cotton sprinkled with sugar .. I have to add something?

    EDIT: yes, I add that you can even see the preparation of malasadas video here (click)

    malasadas+ Punuahu Malasadas, Douceurs dHawaïi (for 20 to 25 malasadas)

    • 500g flour T55
    • 1 cc instant dry yeast (10g fresh)
    • 3 eggs
    • 30ml water
    • 180ml milk tempered
    • 60g cream
    • 55g sugar
    • 1 pinch of salt
    • 30g soft or melted butter

    If you use instant dry yeast, mix it directly to the flour and set aside. If you opt for the active yeast or yeast fraiche, reactivate previously in water with 1 cc of sugar.

    In a large bowl, beat eggs until pale and thick. Add water (or fresh yeast diluted), milk and cream and whisk to gradually adding sugar and salt. Pour 1 / 3 of the flour, mix with the wooden spoon then add the remaining flour by mixing 2 times each time with the wooden spoon still turning in the direction clockwise to assist development gluten. Beat the dough by hand or with a spoon for a few minutes to give the body, then add the soft butter (or melted) in incorporating the dough into flying as before. Continue to work the dough the same way or in the more classically kneading on the work plan fariné lightly until smooth and elastic and that its surface is perfectly smooth.
    Put the dough into a ball in the bowl, cover with film of food and let rise about 2 hours or until doubled in volume.

    Note: At this point you can refrigerate the dough after it has been folded and continue the rest of the recipe the next day.

    malasadas+03 Punuahu Malasadas, Douceurs dHawaïi
    Transfer the dough on the work surface lightly flour and throw a veil of flour on the surface of the dough. Overwrite the dough first with the palms of hands and then spread to roll gently to form a square about 25 cm. Ensure that the dough does not stick to the plan of work by lifting frequently during sprawl: add more flour if necessary. Cover with a clean cloth and allow to almost double in volume about 1 hour.

    Preheat oil in deep fryer or a saucepan on top edge 10 to 15 minutes before the rest of the mix: the oil must be hot but not smoking, a piece of bread or dough plunged back inside must immediately surface surrounded by tiny bubbles and brown in 1 min or less.

    With a pastry cutter or pizza cutter, divide dough into 25 squares of 5 cm. Put the dough squares in hot oil 2 to 4 per frying depending on the size of the fryer. Once the malasadas swollen and golden on each side, drain and place on absorbent paper. Sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving (see trick here - click) or sugar flavored with vanilla, with nutmeg or cinnamon.

    You can also fill after frying the malasadas various toppings with a syringe pin. We have traditional favorites, just sprinkled with sugar crystal to better appreciate the slight crisp on the outside and soft inside incredible.

    Just to prepare beignets, buying a deep fryer seems more useful! Especially since I have no trip to Hawaii planned ;-)

    allulou for the reasonable view all pains in the blog, a vital and healthy food. For the rest, this is my area of "éclatitude";))
    Debo, why a deep fryer. My mother never made her Eastern pastries and fried fritters fryer in the former and of course I do like my mother:

    My "fryer" represented an investment of 20 francs .. much more reasonable than what I put pans ;)

    Good evening,
    I just wanted to make fritters, but the choice is difficult, it sure this time I'll try this one ;)
    Just a board, you can make the dough the robot? Or it is better to have a hand like you?
    Thank you

    Rachel, there are no problems getting the dough to the robot. My principle of always having tested a recipe made by hand, without a map or robot to show that it is possible to achieve its bread by hand (even if for the Brioches particular, I use of preferably a mess, cuve map or rarely robot) and in this way, nobody can hide behind the excuse "ouinn, I have no map, I can not make the recipe ;)

    Hello!
    I am a big fan of donuts, and I have not failed to make a part of what you offer on your blog for the great joy of the whole family! It is such a delight!
    So inevitably there are also those moving to the pot!
    By the way thank you for the St Genix! I did not even know the name of this cake ... A real pleasure for me, I felt a bond in my childhood!
    I attack this weekend, hoping not to miss the chocolates because my almonds are trimmed!
    Again thank you! Marlou

    Keep it going to have to ask my husband. We are already gone several times in Hawaii (his mother of Portuguese and Japanese lived most of her life) and I can not remember tasting donuts.
    We lack fryer and good ventilation at home for donuts, but it makes you want.
    In fact in Hawaiian Lilikoi it mean Passion Fruit.

    I love the history and donuts Maracuja version for me ...

    25 Feb 2008, 8:01 pm
    by Sandra Avital


    Cecy, lilikoi means passion fruit and passion fruit Maracuja =! If you do not eat donuts in Hawaii is that you are moved to the side of Leonard's bakery, Tex drive and all the other bakeries have made their specialty malasadas .. And if your husband's mother is of Portuguese and Japanese, it has certainly heard of malasadas and andagi, the Japanese equivalent of Okinawa ;)
    For ventilation, I do not know but for the deep fryer, a saucepan to medium high edges widely Case ;)

    It looks a little Spanish churros not?
    In any case, it gives me fantastic! They would welcome the ...

    25 Feb 2008, 11:49 pm
    by Sandra Avital


    Mélanie uh .. insofar as the churros are either basic (flour + water + sugar) or rich (choux pastry), I confirm that the malasadas have nothing to do. They would also feature the presence of liquid cream in the dough.

    27 Feb 2008, 3:22 pm
    by cecy


    I asked my husband if he knew. The answer: "yes of course." As against it does not consider it as really Hawaiian;, but Portuguese. "It's just a donut."
    We were in Maui and we have not really done shopping ... so it is that I could easily miss the places where it is sold.
