Try not to ogle them
Donuts are the epitome of gluttony and enjoyment . It is difficult to imagine something more attractive to the human brain than that circumference of sugary dough with a hole in the center. Since the first donut machine appeared in the city of New York at the beginning of the 20th century , pastry chefs from all over the world have got their act together to offer them to us in all possible shapes and colors . Even so, there will always be combinations that escape them. But not to them.
The founders of Blue Star Donuts , Katie Poppe and Micah Camden, have incorporated into their creations a small dose of alcohol , so that when we sink our teeth into the donuts, the pleasure is incomparable. Those over 21 years of age - in the United States they have to wait until they are 21 years old to consume alcohol - can start the morning or have a mid-afternoon joy with the Cointreau Crème Brûlee donut , filled with custard and vanilla beans from Madagascar, with a pipette of Cointreau syrup.
Another recipe for adults is the Blueberry, Bourbon & Basil Donut which, as its name suggests, has Bulleit bourbon whiskey . On this occasion, paired with blueberries and basil . Third on the list the hard apple cider , it is not shaped like a donut to use; in fact, it is technically a fritter, prepared with apples of the variety Granny Smith, Strongbow cider Y Brandy Calvados.
They confess that their secret is to start work every day at 3 in the morning and only use organic and local raw materials . In his web page, they boast of not using “artificial flavors, sugars and oils or preservatives” in their recipes because they ensure that its sole purpose is to “elevate the humble donut beyond its roots” .
