But when I baked pies from yeast dough with sour cream, I immediately remembered this name. The dough is really like fluff, soft and tender.

Preparing yeast dough with sour cream

Sift the flour.

In a saucepan or large bowl, combine melted margarine, sour cream, 125 ml warm water, 2 teaspoons sugar and 1 teaspoon salt. Pour almost all the sifted flour on top (leave a handful of flour), but do not mix. Pour the appropriate yeast mixture onto the flour and gently mix it with the flour, being careful not to grab the bottom layer. Then add vegetable oil and mix everything, grabbing a layer from the bottom. The dough should not be too tough.

Sprinkle a cutting board with the remaining flour, place the dough on it and knead with your hands until the dough has absorbed all the flour.

Cover the dough with a towel and leave for about 40 minutes in a warm place.

When the dough has risen, knead it and leave for another 30-40 minutes in a warm place.
