This looks like quite a find.

And on a side note, the greatest dessert I ever had was Macedonian Tumumblas (sp?). Anyone have a recipe?

This is the only English language recipe I could find on the Internet.

Tulumbi/Tulumbi (English)

For 30 tulumbi:
5 eggs
25g flour (3 tbsp)
5g salt (1 tsp)
250g olive oil
50g sugar (1/4 cup)
1/2 lemon 300ml water (30dl)

Mix the water, sugar, oil and salt in a saucepan, bring to the boil.

Add the flour and mix well with a wooden ladle until the mixture comes away from the sides of the saucepan. Transfer the mixture into another vessel and allow to cool.

Add the eggs one at a time to the cooled mixture and then knead the dough thoroughly. Place the mixture (or portions thereof) in a piping bag with a wide star shaped tip.

Pipe mixture into saucepan containing hot oil, cutting the tulumbi to desired length. Cook until golden in colour. Cook 4 to 5 tulumbi at a time depending on the size of the saucepan.

Make a sugar syrup with 6 cups of water and 3 cups sugar and juice from half a lemon, bring syrup to boil for 8-10 minutes, and then allow to cool.

Place cooked tulumbi into the syrup for 5-10 minutes. Remove tulumbi from syrup and drain. Place on fresh plate ready for serving.
