      Title: MOUSTOKOULOURA (WINE MUST COOKIES)
 Categories: Cookies, Greek, Ethnic
      Yield: 24 Servings
 
  3 1/2 c  All-purpose flour
           -plus extra for kneading
      2 ts Baking soda
      1 tb Freshly ground cinnamon
      1 tb Freshly ground cloves
    1/4 c  Mild olive oil
      2 tb Honey
    1/2 c  Petimezi
           -(Greek wine must syrup)
           -OR- Italian vino cotto
           -OR- Honey
    1/2    Orange; (grated zest)
      1 c  Orange juice
 
  Sift together the flour, baking soda, cinnamon, and cloves into a
  large bowl, making a well in the center. In a smaller bowl, beat the
  olive oil with the honey, petimezi, grated orange zest, and 1/2 the
  orange juice and pour into the well.  Mix together to make a dough,
  adding the remaining orange juice as necessary.
  
  Turn onto a floured surface and knead for about 10 minutes until the
  dough is smooth but not stiff. Cover with a cloth and leave to relax
  for 30 minutes or longer.
  
  Break off pieces of dough, about 2 tablespoonfuls each, and roll into
  snakes about 1/2-inch in diameter. Press the two ends together,
  forming oval wreaths, and place on an oiled or non-stick baking
  sheet. Bake in an oven preheated to 375 F for 10-15 minutes- until
  they are brown and crunchy, but not too hard.
