16 GROUNDCOVER NEWS FOOD AMANDA GALE Groundcover vendor No. 573 This is my Beloved Granny’s actual, handwritten indications for our Family Angel Wings Recipe, which we called "Stuchette" in our Northern Italian dialect. Stuchette means ‘pieces’ or ‘broken pieces,’ and that meaning fits well with the broken body of CHRIST and HIS healings of our brokennesses. These cookies are typically made during Lent; we made them then, and also along with our Resurrection Sunday meal. Since my Granny is passed from this life, including this recipe in her own hand feels like a special tribute to her; and like, she now has her ‘Angel Wings’. For folding, like many European holiday recipes, ‘Angel Wings’ appears in several countries, and with variations, though mostly for its shaping. There are simple ribbons and bow ties; our Family shaped these cookies as knot-bows, as follows: Cookies are always shaped before frying. Roll dough out as thin as possible (nearly transparent, like thick APRIL 3, 2026 Angel Wings for Easter lasagna noodles) on a lightly floured surface. Cut dough (with a round wheel tool for design or a butter knife) into strips about 1/2” wide. Cut a slit in the center of each strip; take one end of strip and tuck it through the center slit, pulling it gently to create a twisted bow or ‘wing’ appearance. Tug gently to lengthen and further thin pastry for a lighter texture. Fry each one in hot oil until golden, 30-60 seconds per side. Drain on paper towels, and generously dust with powdered sugar while warm. ENJOY! Key to some obscure words from my Granny’s handwriting: remaining ingredients, keep stirring, shape into ball, "+" for "and," through machine, have oil, Crisco oil, sprinkle with. Also please note ‘heavy cream’ could be just ‘heavy cream’ and not coffee cream.
