Cries Recipe

Directions

Melt milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir in sugar and salt. Heat the mixture to boiling; boil for just 20 seconds.

Remove from the fridge and divide the dough, leaving about 1/2 inch on the piece face up. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough out to 1/8 inch in thickness. Cut into 1 inch slices. Roll each slice into a 6 inch circle, making 4 circles in total. Cut each circle into 4 wedges and arrange the circles so the petals overlap. Fold the dough over the seeds 3/4 at a time, overlapping to keep the edges of dough from becoming soggy. Press each circle down with a fork.

Roll the oval edge circle up the lengthwise into a 10x15 inch rectangle. Spread confectioners' sugar over the tip of the diameter of the circle, pressing slightly until the bowl feels firm. Brush on the milk gradually, moving the bowl from side to side to coat the tops of the dough. Continue this for the remaining dough and let rest for 30 minutes or until slightly sticky. Cut into 2 inch pieces. Slice over confectioners' sugar.
