New Day Café: Fritters! [1]

You can “fritter” just about anything, and who doesn’t love a good fritter — whether sweet or savory? I’m a savory person myself, but let’s start with a sweet one: the apple fritter.
Apple fritters are one of those amazing foods which have been around for ages. Fritter-type foods can be traced back all the way to the Romans, who introduced the recipe to Europe as their influence and power spread. This precursor of the fritter (and doughnuts as well) was called scriblita and was created by frying dough in hot fat. Cryspeys, a medieval rendition, were served with sugar sprinkled on top. A fritter refers to essentially anything coated in dough and fried, but apple fritters have long been a favourite. kitchenhistoric.blogspot.com/...

I think a nice sour cream or yogurt-based dipping sauce would be great with these, or maybe applesauce on the side. I’d also probably use diced red bell pepper instead of scallion— YMMV. Recipe. [2:28]
