Memories from childhood just came flooding back. ===================================================== ====== Siberian pie with ground bird cherry and sour cream This pie has a long history... Let's start with the fact that Siberia, although a generous land, is unique and harsh... Why is it that no one even suspects that bird cherry can be harvested for the winter , and Siberians consider this an ordinary thing?! In Siberia, our summer is not so long, and therefore many fruit trees simply do not have time to ripen, so the Siberian housewife does everything she can to grow and ripen during our short summer!

Well, about the medicinal properties of bird cherry - that’s a completely separate conversation, which is why bird cherry berries have always been harvested from us! Another feature of Siberian preparations is that we often prepare “live preparations” from berries - they simply grind the berries in a meat grinder or crush them with a masher and generously sprinkle them with sugar. This is what they do with bird cherry. But since the bird cherry is ground together with the seed - it is impossible to separate it from the pulp - then they grind it 2 times, or even three. This preparation is very unique in both taste and color! But whoever tried it will never forget this aroma! And this is where the MYSTERY of Siberian bird cherry pie begins!

My grandmother, Ukrainian by origin, made shangi with bird cherry and sour cream! It was something. I will remember their splendor, taste and aroma for the rest of my life! Many years have passed and now, already quite an adult, I met this fragrant pie in Krasnoyarsk in one of the eateries on Mira Avenue, when I was studying in absentia. It was amazing! It was just a fabulous meeting with a fairy tale from distant childhood! Needless to say, when I came to the session twice, I certainly stopped by and ate my fill of this divine pie!

And then I somehow forgot this taste, but I started making yeast pies precisely because I somehow got such a miracle of bird cherry jam on the eve of my mother’s arrival to us when we served in Kazakhstan - and I wanted to surprise her with our pie!

And recently in the store I saw bird cherry flour - perhaps we had it before, I just didn’t pay attention to it, but now the time has come, so to speak! And I started looking for a pie recipe on the Internet! NOOOOO, girls, REAL SIBERIAN PIE is not a cake where bird cherry is poured into flour…. Siberian pie is a yeasted butter dough that is steamed with bird cherry flour and then mixed with sugar! And on top of this whole miracle is covered with a thick layer of very fatty sour cream, also whipped with sugar! THIS IS A SIBERIAN PIE! And since I didn’t find anything familiar, I made my pie from memory... So, we need about 1 kg of flour, 3 eggs, butter - 200 g, about a glass of sugar, a pack of dry yeast - 10 g, (I added a little more - not all yeast can rise the dough, so not to risk it - I'm on the safe side), 1 glass of milk. A little salt - to taste. For coating the pie: a bag of bird cherry flour (I didn’t look - how many grams there are), 0.5 cups of sugar, sour cream - 1 cup and for sour cream, also 0.5 cups of sugar.

We start the dough on water. After the dough has risen, add flour, pour melted butter, warm milk, sugar, salt, eggs into the dough, knead the dough, regular yeast dough - so that it doesn’t stick to your hands, but it’s not too tight, and let it rise. Then put it into the mold again, let it rise and bake in the oven for 40 minutes at 200°. We check with a wooden stick, if the dough is damp inside, place a bowl of water on the bottom of the oven, cover the top of the pie and reduce the heat in the oven to 120°.

Let the finished pie cool. First, grease the top of the cooled pie with bird cherry and sugar, and without sparing it, add a layer of sour cream and... Bon APPETITE.

PS I cut the pie in half and since I took only one packet of flour, and this turned out to be not enough for me, I added blueberry jam to the bird cherry! And the top was classic - bird cherry with sour cream! It is better to leave the dough overnight for proofing - just like for Easter cakes! I did this in the morning and the dough did not proof as it should - it turned out a little heavy - whoever cooks understands what I mean! Happy kneading and baking to you! https://clubs.ya.ru/4611686018427457851/16610 ==================================== And so one more story: ================================================= The story of how we collected bird cherry

As a child, my mother often made bird cherry pies. We, the children, collected bird cherry ourselves. She grew up in water meadows. There were a lot of bird cherry trees along the banks of the river. For us it was both fun and work. Whole groups of us went to pick berries, climbed trees, sat on branches and swung on them like monkeys. Bird cherry was collected in three-liter cans that hung around our necks. We climbed trees with these beads.

At the same time as the bird cherry was collected, black and red currants were collected. Currant bushes were usually located under bird cherry trees or somewhere nearby. For some reason, we call red currants “brambles,” although in fact “brambles are a type of blackberry. We loved to eat fresh berries with honey, for some time we had our own bees, but it was troublesome to deal with bees, so we moved the hives with bees to another village, to my grandfather. And in the future we brought honey from my grandfather.

During the season we collected quite a lot of bird cherry, at least our parents did not collect berries, we collected enough. The bird cherry brought was dried, and then the father made arrangements at the mill to have it ground.

My dad often took me with him. So I went with him to thresh bird cherry. The mill stood at the dam, water fell from a height onto a mossy wheel and it spun, transmitting its rotation to the millstones with the help of gears, chain and belt drives. Millstones are round stones that grind grain or bird cherry when they fall between the millstones. There was always a rumbling noise at the mill from working mechanisms.

    How to make bird cherry pie with sour cream

    There is a popular belief that the color of the bird cherry tree comes with cold weather. This year the weather played a trick and came not only with cold, but also with a snowstorm. Looking at the sad bird cherry branches in the vase, I really wanted a delicious bird cherry pie with hot tea. And what a pie this recipe turns out to be - tender and so juicy, with a delicate bird cherry taste, that it’s hard to resist the temptation to cut off another piece.

    The set of ingredients can be supplemented with fruits or berries if desired. In my opinion, banana, cherry, pineapple and maybe even an apple, but delicate in structure, are perfect. Sour cream is suitable for any fat content, but not lower than 15%. Higher fat content of sour cream means more calories.
