Cómo preparar Struffoli Honey Balls
- In a large bowl, beat together 2 large eggs, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 1/4 cup olive oil until light and foamy.
- Gradually add 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour and 1 teaspoon baking soda, kneading until a smooth dough forms.
- Knead the dough for 5-7 minutes until it becomes smooth and elastic.
- Divide the dough into 8 equal pieces.
- Roll each piece into a 1/2-inch thick rope. Cut into 1/3 to 1/2-inch long pieces.
- Lightly flour the dough pieces to prevent sticking.
- Heat about 2 inches of vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot to 375°F (190°C). Fry the dough pieces in batches until golden brown and puffy (about 2-3 minutes per batch).
- Remove the fried dough pieces with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
- Arrange the fried dough in a large bowl.
- **Prepare Honey Glaze:** In a saucepan, combine 1 cup Southern Belle honey (or Killer Bee, or Orange Blossom), 1/4 cup water, and a pinch of salt.
- Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly until the glaze thickens slightly (about 5 minutes).
- Remove from heat and carefully pour the hot honey glaze over the fried dough. Gently toss to coat evenly.
- Arrange the honey-glazed Struffoli in a pyramid on a serving plate. Garnish with colorful candy sprinkles or slivered almonds.
- Let cool completely before serving. Enjoy!
