- Put grated rind, lemon juice, lowfat milk, cinnamon, salt, 4 Tbsp. anise liqueur, and 6 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil in a bowl. Mix well. Stir in flour till dough is stiff (approximately 4 c. of flour). Let dough rest 1 hour in a cold place.
- Divide dough into four parts, roll it out very thin on a lightly floured surface, and cut it into rectangles about 3 by 2-inches. Heat frying oil to the verge of smoking. Roll up the rectangles and fry them, a few at a time, in the warm oil. Drain on a rack or possibly brown paper.
- Make a syrup by melting 3/4 c. sugar with 1/2 c. water. When it bubbles and starts to thicken, add in 1/4 c. anise liqueur. Dip the fried crullers in the warm liquid and drain them on a rack. Sprinkle with sugar while still hot. Let them cold before serving.
- This recipe makes about 3 dozen crullers.
