What is the history of the doughnut? The doughnut has been around since the early 1800s, when a woman named Elizabeth Gregory made a deep-fried dough treat that she called "doughnuts" for her son, Hanson Gregory, who was a sea captain. Hanson is credited with inventing the hole in the middle of the doughnut. He said he did this so that the doughnuts would cook more evenly. In the late 1800s, a New England ship captain named Captain Gregory created the first recipe for doughnuts. His recipe included nutmeg and cinnamon, and the doughnuts were fried in pork fat, making them much sweeter than their modern-day counterparts. By the early 1900s, doughnuts had become popular in the United States, and they were often served at church socials and political events. During World War I, soldiers were given doughnuts as a treat. Today, doughnuts are sold in many varieties and are popular in many countries around the world.

These golden triangles are crisp on the outside and irresistibly creamy on the inside, making them a favorite at every Greek table, from casual gatherings to festive celebrations.

For ever I have resisted getting involved with sourdough, maintaining a starter, waiting hours upon hours for a loaf of bread. I don't view commercial yeast as inferior in any way, and probably more consistently reliable. Besides, I like only sourdough that is mild, so no good reason to get dragged in.A friend gave me some starter which I've been using for English muffins and bagels, along with a bit of ady. Time to try a 100% sourdough loaf. Pullman the first day, round top the second. They turned out fine. No epiphany, no conversion though.
