I suppose this is a purely Amer ican term, although it is probably of Pennsylvania Dutch origin. When I tried to define the wurd, I, of course, Immediately thought of doughnuts, but when I told him that they were dipped in coffee, he immediately answered. "But I thought It was not polite In this country to dip things into coffee.1 Perhaps It Is not, but It Is fun to break any rule some time. Speaking of dunking and dough nuts together, we usually think of those of the cruller type. Raised doughnuts are seldom to be seen In restaurants, because they da not hold up so well as the others. A good cruller-doughnut should be tender, but not so rich that It will crack when fried in deep fat, The fat, by the way, should not be too hot as the rings of dough must be given time enough to cook through out, while they are ' browning on both sides. They should be turned frequently during cooking.
