Make as many as desired. Pour fat into a hot copper vessel, and fry one or two at a time, turning them frequently with two sticks, and remove when done. Coat with honey, sprinkle with poppy-seeds, and serve. <\/p>\n<p>MODERN RECIPE<br \/>\nINGREDIENTS<br \/>\n&#8211; 1 Cup (240g) Ricotta Cheese<br \/>\n&#8211; 1 Cup and 1 tablespoon (120g) Spelt, Durum or other whole grain flour<br \/>\n&#8211; 1 Quart (1 L) of fat or oil<br \/>\n&#8211; 1\/3 Cup (80ml) Honey<br \/>\n&#8211; Poppy Seeds<\/p>\n<p>METHOD<br \/>\n1. Mix the cheese and flour in a large bowl, then form it into balls about 1 inch across. This recipe should make 12-15 balls.<br \/>\n2. Heat the oil over a high heat until it reaches 350\u00b0F (175\u00b0C). Turn heat to medium and fry two to three balls at a time, turning every 10 to 15 seconds with tongs. At 60 seconds, begin to check the color; once they are a golden brown (60-90 seconds) take them out and set them on a wire rack over paper towels to drain. Repeat until all of the <em>globi<\/em> are fried.<br \/>\n3. Dip the dried <em>globi<\/em> in honey (heating the honey can help if it is too thick). Then sprinkle with poppy seeds and serve.  <\/p>\n<p>PHOTO CREDITS<br \/>\nSaturn: By inconnu &#8211; User:Jean-Pol GRANDMONT (2011), CC BY 3.0, <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/39OKgLF\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/bit.ly\/39OKgLF<\/a><br \/>\nA Statue of Chronos: By Rufus46 &#8211;
