Traditionally, the dough for pies is made on milk, but it can be replaced with water, when you need to make a lean dish, or dairy products, if you want the baking not to stale. Some housewives use ryazhenka as a liquid base for pastry dough. They claim that it gives the products a delicate flavor of baked milk and they remain soft for a long time. Dough on ryazhenka for patties can be put on the yeast or cooked without them. From the yeast dough, the patties are more lush, but fresh is made easier and faster. The choice of recipe depends on the culinary preferences of the culinary specialist and the time he has.
Cooking Features
The dough for pies on ryazhenka is prepared no more difficult than on water, milk or kefir. Knowing the basic rules of kneading dough and executing them, even a beginning hostess will get a good result.
- The taste of baking directly depends on the quality of the flour. Second-grade flour will give the patties a grayish color and an unpleasant taste, so it is best to take the highest or at least first grade. Flour is not a very expensive product, so saving on it does not make much sense.
- Before kneading dough, flour must be sieved. This manipulation is needed not only to rid the product of small litter and insect larvae. Its main goal is to saturate the flour with oxygen. After sifting the flour becomes easier. This flour is easier to combine with other components, preventing the formation of lumps. The dough from it rises well, the pastry is tender and airy.
- Some housewives recommend the use of soured ryazhenka for the dough, then the dough turns out to be a little more lush, but the use of spoiled food for culinary purposes can hardly be called a reasonable solution. If ryazhenka has thoroughly deteriorated, you should not cook anything from it, but if it is only a little acidified, having lost its pleasant taste, it is ideal for dough.
- Also, to obtain the expected result while kneading the dough, it is important not to neglect the recommendations regarding the temperature of the products used. To activate the yeast ryazhenka need to be heated to 30-36 degrees. At lower temperatures, the yeast may not earn. Preheat fermented milk products should be carefully, preferably in a water bath. If they overheat, they can be divided into cottage cheese and whey, becoming unsuitable for preparing dough. For kneading dough on ryazhenka without yeast, it is enough to warm it to room temperature. The safest thing is to just put it out of the fridge an hour before cooking.
