1/2 cup margarine.
1 cup sugar.
1 tsp vanilla.
1 egg.
1 cup buttermilk.
1 tsp soda.
3 cup flour.
2 1/2 tsp baking powder.
1 tsp salt.
Directions
Try mixing Vanilla and egg beat until mixed. Add the Buttermilk and
the Soda; (I have used 7up) and sift the dry ingredients into this.
add the rest of the ingredients, mix well. Put the container into the
refrigerator chill over night. Take out and roll small pieces of the
dough into long strips, then form them into a figure eight,(like a
pretzel) put them back into the Refrigerator for about an hour, when
they have raised to approximately what looks to be the right hight.
Bake in a 450 deg pre-heated oven for approximately 6 to 8 minutes, (
May vary with the weather so keep an eye on them).But they should be
a light brown before you remove them. Refrigeration is one of the
keys of "KRINGLA" making. They must be refrigerated in order for them
to get the flavor, you could bake them without refrigeration but you
lose a lot of the flavor. You can also use. A: OATMEAL. B: RAISINS.
C: WHOLE WHEAT. You can fill them with your favorite filling, Cream
Cheese, Jelly, ETC. you don't need eggs or yeast. They are not too
sweet, and definitely not Boring like a bagel, (Sorry Bagel lovers,
VBG). It is a coffee Bread not like Muffins, which are too sweet, and
also do not have too many calories. This recipe came from a fella
from the town of LOS OSOS CA He is a out of work Carpenter who
started baking and selling these wonderful Rolls, He said that this
is an original recipe that he got from his grandmother, (Yea for the
Grandmas). Ive tried Nuts, and love the cream Cheese one, You could
even use Custard Filling, Ive also used Different flavored oils like
Pure orange oil, Butterscotch, several Berries types. and they turned
out just great.

The History of Recipes
Historians have traced the existence of recipes way back into antiquity, in fact as far back as the ancient Egyptians, and maybe further still. Interesting though that is, in the main part, these old cookbooks were just simple pictorial recipes for meal preparation.
Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe discovered, according to experts is a collection of stone tablets in Sumerian which show the baking of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as making people feel exhilarated and blissful. Progressing into The time of the romans 25BC a roman called Apicius compiled a few documents showing how to cook the recipes cooked by his fellow Romans. In his works, he describes how the meals were separated into starters, main course and desserts, known in latin as `Gustatio, Primae Mensae and Secundae Mensae`. Aspicius also describes how the Romans were skilled in the use of a wide range of herbs and spices, including a few that are still present in modern kitchens for example thyme, rue and dill. As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times there were some interesting books which date from the 14th Century : a recipe book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another named `Curye on Inglish`. The titles are somewhat misleading tho`, they are not about the indian curry that is served today, but instead descriptions of the types of food prepared by the cooks of the rich and wealthy people of that time. In the fifteenth century, people returning from the crusades brought us many spices and herbs from the Middle-East, including spices such as parsley and basil. These new herbs and spices created an increase in recipe manuscripts, many of which are now in private libraries. Over the following few hundred years, the rich and powerful families of the West competed with each other to serve up the most exotic banquets, and as a result chefs and their recipe collections were at a premium. Even so, it was during the nineteenth century that haute cuisine and recipe collections became really popular. Mrs Isabella Beeton in the UK, and the equally famous Fannie Merritt Farmer in the USA, dedicated the best years of their lives to collecting, trying out, and publishing recipes to allow everyone to enjoy them. By the arrival of the 20th century, cookery books are in high demand, mostly due to increased literacy, increased leisure time and having more money to spend. The introduction of television gave us cooking programs and the accompanying recipe books. Which brings us neatly up to date and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting us all to search through massive numbers of recipes like the ones you can find on our site. |
