Hi Leo,

“Tuesday was Saint Joseph’s Day, which is a Saint Patrick’s Day-style holiday for Italians like me. Except rather than indulging in beer, we indulge in delicious fried pastries like zeppole and frittelle.”
Quite the stereotype to assert that all Irish indulge in beer on our piddly little holiday, unlike delicious Italian pastries on your chosen Saint’s day. Tsk tsk… We’re not all knuckle dragging drunks, Ms. Traverso & Irish cakes & pastries are wonderful. Leave your prejudice behind & try them sometime. Far better than zeppole, I assure you.
Oh goodness, I’m sorry to have offended you, Linda! It was truly not my intention. I was trying to draw a comparison between indulgence foods—things that aren’t quite good for you, but that you enjoy nonetheless. So I put beer and fried food in the same category. Both are traditionally consumed on their respective holidays (I don’t think of corned beef as an indulgence food), but did not intent to further negative stereotypes.
I can tell you that I have had Irish pastries (two favorite spots, now closed, were Breads n’ Bits of Ireland in Melrose, MA and Taste of Home in South Boston) and agree with you that they are wonderful.
I love this recipe! I’ve made them twice, and have gotten many complements. The only thing I did different was, I put all the ingredients for dough in my bread machine and set it to the dough cycle. So easy and not as messy.
How much Crisco solid shortening is needed for frying?
The jelly donuts look yummy!
Wondering what size the ‘package’ of yeast would be.
Wow Linda cool it you have anger issues
