''Schaumrollen'', or ''Schillerlocken'' () (lit. ''foam rolls'' or ''Friedrich Schiller, Schiller's curls'') are an Austrian and Germany, German confection. They consist of a cone or tube of puff pastry filled with whipped cream, Bavarian cream or meringue. The pastries are made by wrapping thin pastry strips around a cone shaped metal tube. After baking, they are filled with the "foam", which is usually sweetened whipped cream or meringue. The pastry tubes are often rolled in coarse sugar or powdered sugar before baking, for extra sweetness and a crunchy texture. History This is a variety of a cream horn, which was brought to North America by Mennonites from the Austrian-Hungarian Empire. Also popular with immigrants from the Danube region (such as the Danube Swabians), ''Schaumrollen'' or ''Schillerlocken'' can be made up to five inches long, and are served as a treat on major holidays such as Christmas, as well as at weddings and first Communion celebrations.

List Of Pastries
pastry, Pastries are small buns made using a stiff dough enriched with fat. Some dishes, such as pies, are made of a pastry casing that covers or completely contains a filling of various sweetness, sweet or Umami, savory ingredients. The six basic types of pastry dough (a food that combines flour and fat) are shortcrust pastry, filo pastry, choux pastry, flaky pastry, puff pastry and suet pastry. Doughs are either nonlaminated, when fat is cut or rubbed into the flour, or else laminated dough, laminated, when fat is repeatedly folded into the dough using a technique called lamination. An example of a nonlaminated pastry would be a pie or tart crust, and brioche. An example of a laminated pastry would be a croissant, danish pastry, danish, or puff pastry. Many pastries are prepared using shortening, a fat food product that is solid at room temperature, the composition of which lends to creating crumbly, shortcrust-style pastries and pastry crusts. Pastries were first created by the ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Danube Swabians
The Danube Swabians ( ) is a collective term for the ethnic German-speaking population who lived in the Kingdom of Hungary in east-central Europe, especially in the Danube River valley, first in the 12th century, and in greater numbers in the 17th and 18th centuries. Most were descended from earlier 18th-century Swabian settlers from Upper Swabia, the Swabian Jura, northern Lake Constance, the upper Danube, the Swabian-Franconian Forest, the Southern Black Forest and the Principality of Fürstenberg, followed by Hessians, Bavarians, Franconians and Lorrainers recruited by Austria to repopulate the area and restore agriculture after the expulsion of the Ottoman Empire. They were able to keep their language and religion and initially developed strongly German communities in the region with German folklore. The Danube Swabians were given their German name by German ethnographers in the early 20th century. In the 21st century, they are made up of ethnic Germans from many former and p ...

Puff Pastry
Puff pastry, also known as , is a light, flaky pastry, its base dough () composed of wheat flour and water. Butter or other solid fat () is then layered into the dough. The dough is repeatedly rolled and folded, rested, re-rolled and folded, encasing solid butter between each resulting layer. This produces a laminated dough. During baking, gaps form between the layers left by the fat melting; the pastry is leavened by steam from the water content of the fat as it expands, puffing the separate layers. The pastry layers crisp as the heated fat is in contact with its surfaces. History While modern puff pastry was developed in France in the 17th century, related laminated and air-leavened pastry has a long history. In Spain, likely built upon Arab or Moorish culinary traditions, the first known recipe for pastry using butter or lard following the Arab technique of making each layer separately, appears in the Spanish recipe book ('book on the art of cooking') by Domingo Hernández d ...

List Of Foods Named After People
A list is a set of discrete items of information collected and set forth in some format for utility, entertainment, or other purposes. A list may be memorialized in any number of ways, including existing only in the mind of the list-maker, but lists are frequently written down on paper, or maintained electronically. Lists are "most frequently a tool", and "one does not ''read'' but only ''uses'' a list: one looks up the relevant information in it, but usually does not need to deal with it as a whole". Lucie Doležalová,The Potential and Limitations of Studying Lists, in Lucie Doležalová, ed., ''The Charm of a List: From the Sumerians to Computerised Data Processing'' (2009). Purpose It has been observed that, with a few exceptions, "the scholarship on lists remains fragmented". David Wallechinsky, a co-author of '' The Book of Lists'', described the attraction of lists as being "because we live in an era of overstimulation, especially in terms of information, and lists help ...

Torpedo Dessert
A torpedo dessert (, , , , ) is a buttery, flaky viennoiserie bread roll, filled with pastry cream, named for its well-known torpedo shape. Croissants and other viennoiserie are made of a layered yeast-leavened dough. The dough is layered with butter, rolled and folded several times in succession, then rolled into a sheet, in a technique called laminating. The process results in a layered, flaky texture, similar to a puff pastry.

Sachertorte
Sachertorte ( , ; ) is a chocolate sponge cake covered with chocolate glaze, with an interior layer of apricot jam either under the glaze or in the middle of two sponge layers. The cake was invented by Franz Sacher, either in 1832 for Austrian chancellor Klemens von Metternich, or perhaps in the 1840s. The cake is served at Hotel Sacher and Demel pastry shop in Vienna. In the 20th century, they battled over the cake's ownership and whether the cake should have one or two layers of sponge. Both keep their exact recipes secret, but the cake's ingredients include butter, chocolate, eggs, flour, and sugar. Hotel Sacher serves the cake with whipped cream. History Franz Sacher was the inventor of Sachertorte (also spelled Sacher-Torte), '' torte'' being a German word for a multi-layered cake with a filling.
