Περιγραφή
Loukoumades are called “fouskia” because they puff up in the oil. Frying them requires technique and, of course, several trials. The proper technique is to make them with a little dough, so that it can puff up. The recipe for loukoumades from Psara has another originality: the use of rice. In the old days, they would take the top part of the flour (the fine powder) that the mill ground, in order to make loukoumades.
Εκτέλεση
You boil the rice in a pot with plain water until it turns to mush. Once it cools, you blend it in the blender until it becomes a cream. Dissolve the yeast in a little lukewarm water. Gradually add the flour, the baking powder, and the mastic, then add the ouzo and the orange and mix well until you have a uniform, thick batter. Add the rice cream and mix. Knead everything together with a little lukewarm water and leave it in a warm place for about 30 minutes, until it doubles in volume. Fry in hot oil, cutting small doughnuts with your hand in a ring shape, dipping your hand in water so they don’t stick.
