Donuts are, without exaggeration, a global pastry. The glazed Manhattan donut and the hot St. Petersburg crumpet are distant relatives, and the Berliner is essentially the older brother of the Czech paczek. Attempts to delve into the history of donuts have been made more than once; one of the latest is the research of the British chef Paul Hollywood. His quest for the best donut was even documented on the show Paul Hollywood: Baking in the City. On the eve of the premiere, “Around the World” invites you to take a journey through the history of one of the most cosmopolitan desserts.
The history of the donut is not marked by individual dates, but rather by eras. It is known that recipes for high-calorie pie were shared with each other first by soldiers of great empires, and later by European colonists. TO early XIX centuries, donuts and settlers immigrated to New Holland: their arrival on the East Coast of the United States is documented in Washington Irving's History of New York.
Thirty years later, Hansen Gregory - according to various versions, either a Danish sailor or an American pastry chef - noticed that the middle of the donut did not have time to bake, and hastened to replace it with a round hole. However, there are also alternative versions the appearance of the iconic hole: utilitarians justify its origin by the natural desire not to get burned by boiling oil, and conservatives - by the legacy of the donut hole.
Having settled in and changed his name to donut(donut), North American donuts witnessed a revolution in machine production: while Henry Ford invented the assembly line, immigrant Adolph Levitt worked on donut-making equipment. The experiment was successful, and in 1920 the automatic donut machine was introduced to the public. The invention sparked a boom among the emerging middle class, and until the start of the Great Depression, donuts remained America's favorite baked goods.
In 1937, as the decade of famine passed and flour, butter and sugar returned to food pantries, the first donut shop opened in North Carolina, and a few months later fans of the sweet baked goods had fun at Donut Day, a holiday established as a tribute to Salvation Army volunteers. who distributed baked goods to soldiers during the First World War. A few years later the scenario will repeat itself: new war will return donuts to the battlefields, and girls supporting the wounded in hospitals will go down in history as Donut Dollies(“donut girls”)
The donut's expansion will continue in the north. In the mid-1960s, unable to resist maple syrup glaze, Canada surrendered. Big money will come into the “sweet” business; donations will become both an object of investment and an element of mass culture. North America will be covered with glaze, will fall under the onslaught of traditional fillings and new experimental tastes: it is useless to resist, and you don’t want to.
Observing the evolution of donuts into donuts, conservative Europe will prefer to preserve the classic recipe and hold off on the glaze. The Old World will rely on form: the ironic French peis de nonne, despite the unambiguous name, is more reminiscent of the fluffy skirts of court ladies.
Northern European countries remain true to minimalism: smultrings are baked without filling and very small. Eastern Europe, on the contrary, does not skimp and sprinkles donuts with kilograms of powdered sugar. And southerners pass them off as churros - long strips of choux pastry that hide a multi-rayed star in their cross-section.
The Russian history of donuts is much shorter. The first cafe that served hot round crumpets opened in Moscow in 1952 and is still operating today. The only thing that can compete with it is the famous pyshechnaya on Bolshaya Konyushennaya in St. Petersburg. However, in the case of donuts, competition is inappropriate. All that remains is to try, compare and choose.
