I finished a batch of beignets last night using the Morning Call recipe from their website. This one uses a combo of milk/buttermilk instead of water. No eggs like the previous recipe and self rising flour instead of yeast/regular flour. Frying temp called for 375 degrees instead of 350.

I liked the ATK recipe better because it was less dense and fluffier. Seemed to work better for a breakfast food. It also had a yeastier "sweet bread" flavor profile, just more delicate all around.

I think what I may do at some point in the future is modify the original (ATK) recipe a bit. Short of spending some time in NOLA, I'll never be really sure how they should taste, but that's probably a subjective thing long debated like "who makes the best NY pizza?"
