Leave the car, Take the Cannoli...

Are the cannoli forms you are using one inch in diameter? what other sizes can be used? I think the ones I used to buy in Boston were larger, am i right? and what kind of metal is best?

Wonder why Chef Batali does not use eggs on the dough. Anyone have a hint?

[hijakaftoyl]

can it be any type of wine?

[Zephilindrum]

Holy crap he lost weight

[babelicious26]

is there a substitute for the alcohol, as we don't drink it? thanks

[JamesBlaire]

Yes, make a simple syrup (equal parts water and sugar) with about 1 or 2 tsp (well, to taste) of lemon juice. That should do it..

[jsi6073]

um the alcohol evaporates when it cooks...all ur left is with the flavor of lemons

[Esqua]

white wine vinegar

[Zackihateniggers]

@babelicious26 fagget drink a beer

[MrButterworth24]

@babelicious26 it gets cooked through so there is no alcohol. Babies could drink it

[jimmyjohnseann]

@MrButterworth24 the alcohol will cook out, its a flavoring good to keep in the kitchen for cooking

@babelicious26 "Leave the gun. Take the cannoli..Fugetabout it!

[bodhranful]

@babelicious26 it cooks out you won't taste it. But use any flavored syrup you want. It's elementry my dear watson.

[FlipSnipeZ]

@babelicious26 As shown in the series by Ted Allen on the cooking channel, (forgot the name but involves food science) the alcohol will burn off per se meaning the flavor will be less prevalent but it also depends on the water content of the alcohol since the alcohol amount still remains either you cook it or not.

[hurtadorivas]

for the dough can u put eggs?

[Amaraxis]

as instead of the liquor? not really. The problem with adding eggs is that the dry products will combine to more like normal dough, and you want the dry, crumblyness...

also, eggs are protiens, not lipids so they would not work to substitute for the butter.

[beachcaster56]

gotta make some :)

thank you

[Ikonomi]
