You need a deep fat fryer! I discovered this in high school, when we had to make donuts in Home Economics - the best ones I ever tasted, not just because I never put sugar on them.

Forget what the recipie was, but it should be easy to get a recipie from anywhere - what makes the diff. for me re: donuts is - they have to be deep fried, and be hot or warm, and not have anything added to them. The ingredients are going to be pretty standard, and you'll need to find out which ratios taste best for you. Fryers are cheap these days. And you can do tempura in them, as well as chips, if you're into it.

euch. PBR.

I don't drink that stuff, EVER. Even if it's the only beer at the party.
Had it once on tap. Wasn't as bad as the cans, but still pretty awful.

i find it hard to believe you can't find a decent donut; then again, i met someone from ohio who called bagels "bag-elz" and said bagels from brooklyn weren't as good as lenders from a bag.

And please, to that wannabe-rude-boy there with their wee act thinking we are mates so much that you can call me names and disguise it as a friend thing, don't act it.

you don't really need a deep fat fryer. veggie oil has a low enough smoking point, and you're only going to be making them occassionally.

we then killed and ate her, determining that semi-literate retards from the midwest are less tasty than pbr-tards from williamsburg by way of delaware.

And please, to that wannabe-rude-boy there with their wee act thinking we are mates so much that you can call me names and disguise it as a friend thing, don't act it. You'd never be able to talk that way to me in actual real-life without everyone seeing what a put-on fake you are with that, plus you'd feel about the size of your small toes toenail if you even thought to say that to me in actual offline reality, the only reality that counts for anything at all.

Harsh? Quick to re-act!? mais non - with such an attitude that you are cultivating there, it's imperative in the extreme that I cut you down to size asap. Can't have anyone thinking that way about me, that's where you amp up your false magical powers from!

all in your wee head

The funnel cake is superior to the donut in every way, and in some ways more special because they only places you can really get them are amusment parks and summer carnivals.

/my two cents.

Would I be right in saying that jam donuts are usually served hot? Is this perhaps an Australian practice? Blueberry Hill?

Anyways, beignets are superior to funnel cakes, plus you can get them anytime you like, assuming you live where I do.

Toups, did you eat an donuts when you were in Tokyo?

Also, is it a bad thing to enjoy overbaked doughnuts/donuts? I sometimes go out around midnight to Bi-Lo and get six overbaked donuts for ONLY $1.30. I haven't had a fresh donut in a long time, actually.

I was tempted but I was too frightened of them. I guess I did the right thing?

I might be returning to Japan around or after Christmas. Depending on how cheaply I can do it. You have been warned!

It's OK, you can be my friend. It would be hard to purhase a doughnut I wouldn't enjoy eating.

well they look like this you decide.

Shit..I put THAT in my mouth last week?
