The secret of the juicy filling
How juicy and tasty the filling will be depends on many factors, but achieving the goal is not difficult, you just need to pay attention to some little things:
- For the filling you need fresh or frozen juicy elastic leaves. Withered, wrinkled, too hard, old leaves - mercilessly “discard”;
- Many housewives prefer to pour boiling water over the leaves before cutting. They become softer, but if you want the filling to be crispier, you can do without boiling water. Therefore, whether to scald or not is the choice of every housewife;
- If the leaves are lightly mashed with your hands and salted (or covered with sugar), they will release juice. Therefore, in combination with cottage cheese, eggs, rice, it is recommended to salt (sweeten) the sorrel in advance. But if the other components of the filling also produce juice (fruits, vegetables, herbs), then you need to add salt immediately before putting the filling into the pies;
- You need to cut the sorrel with a ceramic knife so that ascorbic acid does not oxidize. If there is no such thing on the farm, then it is better not to cut the leaves, but to tear them;
- If you think about what sorrel is combined with, the conclusion suggests itself: with almost all products. Therefore, there is no need to be afraid of experiments.
Sweet pies with sorrel on yeast dough: step-by-step recipe with photos
The second method, which produces very tasty and airy pies from childhood. In this recipe we will not soak the plant in boiling water. You will also learn the secret of making dough with yeast so that the pies are airy.
Ingredients:
For the test
- Flour - 400 grams
- Sugar - 50 grams (2 heaped tablespoons)
- Chicken egg - 1 piece
- Natural yogurt without fillers - 125 grams
- Yeast - 1 teaspoon (5 grams)
- Milk - 125 grams (This is an approximate amount, because flour varies)
- Salt - 1/2 teaspoon.
- Melted butter - 30 grams
- Vegetable oil - 30 grams
For the filling (it all depends on the amount of dough)
- Sorrel
- Sugar
Cooking process:
1. Let's start with the dough, or rather with the dough (yeast dough). Take a cup. Pour 50 grams of lukewarm water into it. Throw in yeast, 2 teaspoons of flour, a little sugar, literally half a teaspoon. Mix everything well until smooth so that there are no lumps. And put in a warm place for 15 minutes.
If the yeast is alive, then during this time it will have time to wake up and produce a foamy head. If suddenly there are no foam caps, then they need to be replaced.
2. Meanwhile, sift the flour. Add sugar to it. Beat in the egg here. Pour out the yogurt. Next, mix everything. We do this with our hands or a spoon.
3. Now add our yeast baltushka. In 15 minutes a foam formed. And stir again.
4. Then we will add milk in portions. And we will add until we have no dry flour left at all, i.e. everything will be wet. The dough should not be thick, of medium consistency, and quite soft. So gradually add milk and stir well each time. As a result, you should get a soft dough that will hold its shape well.
After kneading, cover the dough with a plate, towel or cling film. Leave for 20 minutes in a warm place. During this time, the flour will have time to absorb all the moisture, forming gluten. And the dough will be easier to knead.
5. After 20 minutes, add salt to the dough. Then we will beat in the oil mixture. It includes melted butter and vegetable oil.
You can take separately, both creamy and sunflower. Or you can even use margarine. This is optional.
Add the oil mixture in small portions. Add the next portion until the previous one is completely absorbed. And at the same time the dough is kneaded.
Preparing the dough for further fermentation
6. Then knead the dough thoroughly on the table in order to drive as much oxygen into the dough as possible. Along the way, it will stretch and become wrinkled. As a result, the gluten threads will stretch. The dough will be more durable. It will better retain the carbon dioxide that will be formed as a result of fermentation.
Pull the dough and fold it. Then you turn it over. We repeat. And so preferably for 10-15 minutes.
7. The result is a soft, fairly sticky dough. Place the ball in a bowl and level the surface. Cover with film and leave in a warm place to ferment. During the fermentation process, the dough needs to be pulled and folded several times, as we do above on the table. This is done in order to develop gluten well. In turn, it will affect the quality of the finished dough.
If the dough is too sticky, you can grease your hands with water or vegetable oil. Better of course with oil.
8. The dough has risen a little. We begin to grab from the edges and drag to the opposite wall. And so on in a circle. Finally, fold it in half and turn it over.
If you follow the rule and theory, then you need to do 4-5 such additions every 45 minutes. In practice, it turns out to be about 2-3 such additions. And you can do it not exactly after 45 minutes, but as the dough fits. When the dough has approximately doubled in size, make folds.
Forming dough balls
9. After all the manipulations, place the risen dough on the table. And cut into portions. Place the dough carefully. It is advisable not to pull it too hard.
10. Divide into portions, depending on what kind of pies we want to get. The dough is quite sticky, so we coat our hands in flour. It turned out to be 18 pieces.
11. Then the lumps of dough need to be rounded. We do it this way: fold the dough towards the center of the ball until the outer surface is stretched. I pinch the edges. And I roll up. The result is a smooth ball. And thus we roll up the remaining pieces.
Once everything is done, cover the balls with film and leave them alone for 5-7 minutes. During this time, the gluten will relax and the dough will be easier to roll out.
Making pies
12. While the dough is resting, wash and chop the sorrel. By this time the plant should be dry and clean. This time we will not soak sorrel in boiling water. Take the ball and roll it into a flat cake. We will not mix the plant with sugar. We will separately add sugar and sorrel to the pie.
If you mix sugar and sorrel in advance, the grass will give juice. And the filling will become wet.
Roll out thin enough. Place a teaspoon of sugar in the center of the cake. Then we put in the sorrel. First, twist it in your hands, forming a lump. The most difficult thing is to mold the central edges together. And then it’s easier. We mold it like a dumpling.
13. Place the molded pies on a baking sheet covered with food paper. And cover them with film. And leave them for 30-40 minutes. The picture below is after time has passed.
14. Then, 5-7 minutes before baking, brush them with beaten egg. And place in a preheated oven at 180 degrees until browned.
Please note that baking temperature is not absolute. Focus on your oven. You can bake at a lower or higher temperature.
The pies are ready. Bon appetit!
Which dough is better
The sorrel filling will be appropriate in pies made from a wide variety of doughs. Suitable: yeast, puff pastry, unleavened, kefir, sour cream, margarine, whey, mayonnaise. The simplest recipe is lazy pies with sorrel from lavash.
- Cut the lavash sheet into 4 parts, grease each with mayonnaise.
- Prepare the selected sorrel filling. Unsweetened pies are tastier with lavash, but you can try different options. Since lavash is thin and gets soggy quickly, you need to act quickly and it is better to avoid very wet fillings.
- Preheat the oven (up to 1800C) or frying pan, grease with vegetable oil (baking tray). You need to fry lavash in a frying pan without a lid, then it will be crispy, but in a closed frying pan, moisture will condense and the lavash will turn out raw.
- Spread the filling onto the lavash leaves, fold the “envelopes” and place on a baking sheet (frying pan). Fry until golden brown. Lavash pies are very tasty if there is cheese in the filling.
Detailed recipes for quick camping snacks made from lavash are available on Natalia Kalnina’s YouTube channel.
