jillwheezul has been doing these wonderful waffle recipe translations and came across one that looks suspiciously like a 'funnel cake' recipe.

The Weckerin recipe (as translated by jillwheezul) Page 67:
Strauben von Mandeln
Mach ein gute dicke Mandelmilch/Klopff Eyer darein/fast Eyer und Milch gleich/thu ein wenig salz und zucker darein/von wegen des schmalzes/ein wenig Rosewasser/mach mit Schönem Meel ein straubenteig nicht zu dünn/bachs wie andere strauben/oder lauter stern/mit ziemlichen röhrlein/nit zu klein/leges auff ein schönes weißtuch/darnach bestrewe es wol mit Zucker/sie werden schön unnd gut. Also magstu süsse Oepffel klein hacken/und in einen straubenteig thun und mit grossen röhren backen/sind fast gut.

Almond funnel cakes
Make a good thick almond milk/beat eggs into it/mix the eggs and milk together/add a bit of salt and sugar into it/from a weight of fat/a bit of rosewater/make with fine flour into a strauben batter not too heavy/bake as for other strauben/or plain stars/with seemly tubes/not too small/lay on a clean white cloth/thereon strew well with sugar/they are nice and good. Also you can hack sweet apples small/and put in a strauben batter and bake with large tubes/are quite good.

And there is also the Strauben recipe #86
If you would bake good fried Strauben
Then bring water to a boil and pour it on the flour, stir it together well, beat eggs into it and salt it, take a small strauben funnel, which should have a hole as wide as a finger, and let the batter run through and fry the Strauben. The batter should be warm.

Anyone up for experimentation? I'm thinking funnel cakes for Mudthaw.
