A cookbook from Helvetia that contains the recipe that Costello uses to make his rosettes.
Dip hot rosette iron into batter, almost to the top edge of the iron. Put immediately into the hot oil and remove the iron as soon as the rosette slips off.
Brown on both sides (this is easier than it sounds and great fun).
Remove from the hot oil, place on paper to dry and sprinkle with sugar.

This week, when an award-winning Asheville chef decided to launch a restaurant, she returned to a rich community tradition. Also, the popularity of weaving waxes and wanes.
