Pelajaran pastry saya ketika berumah tangga dimulai dari roti. Ibu mertua menghadiahi kami sebuah microwave oven, saya memilih merk sharp yang punya feature microwave and grill, kata mbak toko elektronik fungsi grill ini akan membantu saya dalam baking.
Saya punya trauma yang agak nyebelin dalam membuat roti secara manual, dulu saya pernah menemani mama belajar membuat roti pada temannya seorang ahli baking, padahal cuma bikin adonan roti dasar aja tapi pegelnya minta ampun, pulang kerumah kayak habis berantem.. mengadoni roti dengan berbagai gaya banting-pukul-tinju dan tetap berujung pada heavy duty mixer karena doughnya masih kurang mulus :))
Kemudian kiriman ibu mertua datang lagi, kali ini berupa SOS package yang berisi koleksi majalah dan buku resep, salah satunya adalah mudah membuat Pizza untuk pemula dari Majalah Sedap. Dari situ saya belajar hal mendasar tentang roti, ragi dan bagaimana cara kerjanya, tapi itu lain cerita..nanti deh daya bahas :D
Resep donat ini hasil dari dua kali trial dan error, pertama kali saya coba Homemade Potato Doughnut punya Laura Vitalle karena ada videonya di YouTube. Hasilnya gimana? tentu saja alot :))) penambahan kentang membuat dough jadi sangat-sangat lengket, membuat habis kesabaran dan menghabikan bersendok-sendok tepung. Rasanya sih lumayan lah, ini kelebihan utama dari roti homemade makanya saya nggak nyerah untuk coba lagi.
Malas mengolah kentang, ternyata di Pioneer Woman ada resep Homemade Glaze Doughnut yang 'Krispy Kreme Wannabe', ada foto step by stepnya juga yang saya lihat mudah membuatnya. Saya juga mengambil referensi dari Just Try and Taste yang kurang lebih sama resepnya, yang penting dari resepnya adalah tipsnya untuk sabar pada dough, untuk menjadi lemas tak perlu dibanting berlebihan kok..asal konsisten adonan kita tetap bisa mulus sesuai keinginan :)
Sekarang membuat roti baik itu donat, pizza ataupun steam bun menjadi menyenangkan buat saya, menguleni adonan merupakan sebuah terapi.. kneading the dough make you feel better about life
*saelah*
Berikut resepnya saya copy paste ya, pemirsa..
Ingredients
Doughnuts
1-1/8 cup Whole Milk, Warm
1/4 cup Sugar
2-1/4 teaspoons (one Package) Instant Or Active Dry Yeast
2 whole Large Eggs, Beaten
1-1/4 stick Unsalted Butter, melted
4 cups All-purpose Flour
1/4 teaspoon Salt
Shortening
GLAZE
3 cups Powdered Sugar (I add 1 tsp cinnamon powder)
1/2 teaspoon Salt
1/2 teaspoon Vanilla
1/2 cup Cold Water Or Milk
Preparation Instructions
To Make the Dough:
1. Make sure milk is nice and warm, but not overly hot.
2. Add sugar to milk. Stir to dissolve.
3. Add yeast into a small bowl.
4. Pour milk/sugar mixture over yeast. Stir gently, then let sit for 10 minutes.
5. Melt butter in separate bowl until butter is almost melted. Stir to finish melting so butter won't be overly hot.
6. Add beaten eggs to melted butter, stirring constantly to make sure the butter's not too hot for the eggs.
7. Add the egg/butter mixture to the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the dough hook.
8. With the mixer on 3 or medium-low speed, pour in the yeast mixture.
9. Allow the dough hook to stir this mixture for a couple of minutes, making sure it's thoroughly combined.
10. With the mixer still going, add helpings of the flour mixture in 1/4 to 1/2 cup increments until all the flour is gone.
11. Stop the mixer, scrape the bowl, then turn the mixer on the same speed for five whole minutes.
12. After five minutes, stop the mixer and scrape the bottom of the bowl.
13. Turn on the mixer for 30 seconds.
14. Turn off the mixer and allow the dough to sit in the bowl undisturbed for 10 minutes.
15. After 10 minutes, transfer dough to a lightly oiled bowl. Toss the dough to coat, then cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place straight in the fridge.
16. Refrigerate dough for at least 8 hours, or overnight.
To Make the Doughnuts:
1. Remove bowl from fridge and turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface.
2. Roll out to 1/4 to 1/3-inch thickness.
3. Using a 3-inch cutter, cut as many rounds as you can, then roll out remaining dough and cut as much as you can, etc.
4. Cut holes out of each round using a 1 1/2-inch cutter.
5. Place both doughnuts and holes on a floured baking sheet.
6. Cover with large tea towel and place in a warm place in your kitchen; my kitchen is very drafty, so I have to briefly warm the griddle, then turn it off and set the sheets on top to keep warm.
7. Allow doughnuts to rise undisturbed for at least 1 hour; 1 hour 15 minutes if necessary. Doughuts should be visibly puffier and appear to be airy.
To Fry the Dougnuts
1. Heat plenty of vegetable shortening in a large pot until the temperature reaches 375 to 380 degrees---do not let it get hotter than 380 degrees! 375 is ideal; keep the thermometer in the pan to continually monitor.
2. One to two at a time, gently grab doughnuts and ease them into the hot oil. Allow them to cook 1 minute on each side; they will brown very quickly.
3. Remove doughnuts from the oil with a slotted spoon, allowing all oil to drip off.
4. Place doughnut immediately on several layers of paper towels. Count to five, then flip it over onto a clean part of the paper towels. Count to five, then flip it over again; the purpose, obviously, is to drain as much grease as possible before it soaks into the doughnut.
5. Repeat with remaining doughnuts and holes. The holes will cook more quickly than the doughnuts; about 30 seconds per side.
6. Allow doughnuts to slightly cool.
To Glaze
1. Mix all glaze ingredients in a bowl until completely smooth.
2. One by one, dip doughnuts into the glaze until halfway submerged. (Note: completely submerge doughnut holes, then remove with slotted spoon.)
4. Remove from glaze, then turn right side up on a cooling rack over a cookie sheet (to catch dripping glaze.)
5. Serve warm if possible, or room temperature.
