I think I may be playing one long game of "Can we fry this?" I wondered how our no-knead Danish dough, from Maximum Flavor, would behave when deep fried. I finally made the time to try it out. I modified the dough slightly for doughnutland. I added some vanilla and increased the sugar a bit. After the dough was rolled, folded and rolled again we cut the dough into strips and created danish spirals with a hole in the center.
The dough fried up wonderfully. It was crispy on the outside and unrolled in a tender spiral. The danish with a hole is now looking to make a full time appearance at Curiosity Doughnuts. Tinkering and time will see where we take it.
