::Crispy Twists

*2 large eggs
*2 c. flour
*0.5 c. powdered sugar
*0.25 t. salt
*1 t. baking soda or baking
powder
*2 c. sifted flour
*oil

Method:

1. In a bowl, mix eggs, flour, sugar, salt and baking soda thoroughly until sugar is dissolved; add flour; knead it into a soft dough. If the dough is too dry, add water; if too moist, add flour. Knead the dough until it is smooth; let it sit for 30 minutes. 2. Roll the dough into a thin sheet; cut the sheet into 24 pieces. 3. Use one hand to take a piece of dough and lightly stretch the strip while the other hand holds the opposite end firmly pressed on the table. Twist the strip to form a spiral. Bring both ends of the twisted strips together and twist them so that the ends connect. Make the other twists in the same manner. 4. Heat the wok, then add oil. Deep-fry the twists over medium heat for 4 minutes or until they are golden brown. Remove, drain and cool. Serve.
