I Love the Smell of Fried Dough in the Morning. . .

My parish is having its annual Bazaar right now and the Toder family is manning a table for food ticket sales during the entire time. Today is the fourth and final day. The folks at the fried dough concession are all friends of ours and keep giving my children extra bags of fried dough. Although I once discovered the world’s best breakfast, I must say that dough, fried the night before and re-heated in the toaster, is very very delicious. With my fresh warm cafe au lait, I close my eyes and imagine I am back at the Cafe du Monde in New Orleans with warm, sweet beignets in front of me…

    The smell of fried dough in the morning sounds wonderful, but nothing beats the aroma of bacon!

    What if you kneaded bacon into the dough and fried them simultaneously?

    I think you’d want to fry the bacon first so you can collect the fat to fry the dough. /-:

    Bacon grease for the win!

    Absolutely! I used to fry my French toast in the grease left from frying the bacon. [I don’t fry bacon at home anymore, so I’ve lost that particular combination.]
