An Un-Official Discussion of Doughnutness

Recommended Posts

It is time to give the doughnut its due. Bring your best to play.

My personal favourite comes from a little place in Deep Cove in North Vancouver called Honey Doughnuts and Goodies. They are unofficially called Roly Polies. They tend to sell out in the morning so it is good to get them early. They come in 3 types - chocolate dipped, maple dipped and plain. They are a bit of heaven.

My second favourite doughnut would be the Tres Leches doughnut from the Doughnut Plant in NY. They have a piped in filling of evaporated milk, condensed milk and cream.

Honourable mention goes to the hot grilled doughnuts served at Moto in Williamsburg, NY which look something like this:

There is no better snack on a cold night in New York.

What you got?

Ordo's head can make any donut the best donut ever photographed

To bring some diversity into this thread I present

Specimen A, the malasada (of Portugese descent adopted by the people of Hawaii)

Malasada1-thumb.jpg

Big fluffy balls of dough deep fried with sugar sprinkled on top (image of Leonard's, arguably the best) also comes with fillings (although its untraditional, most just opt for sugar/cinnamon-sugar powdering)

Specimen B, andagi (of Okinawan descent)

Deep fried spheres of absolute joy. The co-cook at my uncle's restaurant experiments with different flavors of andagi and it's absurdly good

We now return you to your regular programing.

Not really a doughnet in the STRICTEST sense, but still fried dough so I think qualifies:

bouchees de castor AKA beavertails. Fried dough in a long flat shape, and covered with any of:

Nutella, Bananas, Maple-sugar sauce, strawberries, or nuts.

MMmMMmmmmMMmmm

Butler's donuts in Westport, MA, been around since the dawn of the donut made in a little clapboard house. Used to gorble these in my youth.

Also, Turkish donut, for variety. Like the Portugese donut, but you don't become instantly comatose/ queasy.
