Grandma's Secret Trick
Grandma's Secret Trick
Fritters were one of Grandma's favorite appetizers to serve when friends dropped by. To speed up preparation, she used a teaspoon instead of a tablespoon to spoon the batter into the oil. The smaller bits of batter fried up into little one- or two-bite snacks, making them perfect finger food.
