A fasnacht, similar to a doughnut, is a Pennsylvania Dutch yeast-raised potato pastry that’s deep-fried in lard. They are traditionally made and eaten on Shrove (Fat) Tuesday, the day before Lent, to empty the pantry of lard, sugar, and butter. It is traditional farm lore that to consume a Fasnacht on Shrove Tuesday will bring good luck and a plentiful harvest in the new year. Our recipe contains some of Eddie's Breads wild yeast culture and is a recipe handed down through the family. We recommend sharing this Wonderful Good Pennsylvania Dutch tradition with all of your neighbors, co-workers and good friends. Happy 2010 and a prosperous harvest to you and your kin.
