It is difficult to find a hostess who at least once in her life did not indulge her loved ones and guests with fragrant puffy pies. There is an opinion that the preparation of such a treat takes at least several hours, since the dough must rise several times. Perhaps, in the olden days, skilful housewives used to bake pies, but the dynamic rhythm of the 21st century dictates new rules. The modern housewife can not afford to spend the whole day on cooking pies, so there were wonderful recipes for quick pies, which are usually cooked on kefir.
Patties on kefir - general principles and methods of cooking
Despite the fact that the basis of the pies is kefir, it is not at all necessary that they will all be similar. This delicacy can vary in shape, have different fillings, baked in the oven or in a pan. In the preparation of pies, the flight of fantasy can be limitless, the main thing is to take the process seriously, remembering that the dough does not tolerate negligence. The technology of making pies on kefir is quite simple: the ingredients are mixed, the dough is kneaded, then cut into small pieces, from which the cakes are made. Filling is prepared separately (sweet, meat, fish, mushroom, vegetable, etc.), the filling is wrapped in a flat cake. Within a few minutes, the patties come up, then they are fried in a pan or in the oven (10 minutes after starting to bake in the oven, the patties should be smeared with a beaten egg).
Kefir patties - food preparation
When choosing foods that will be used when baking pies, it is important that they are fresh, otherwise, if there are no health problems after eating such a dish, the dough will not rise, which means that the pies will not be airy. Careful attention should be paid to the choice of flour, it is recommended to give preference to the highest grade product. It is quite simple to determine the quality of the flour, you need to throw a pinch into the water, if the white color remains, the product is excellent. Good flour in dry form does not roll into lumps, but crunches nicely between your fingers. Sometimes for the preparation of pies take flour of the first grade, it is not prohibited, but still it is better to use a higher quality product. As for kefir, there are no special recommendations, one should only take into account that a product with a high percentage of fat content will make the patties more satisfying, moreover, the dough will fit faster. Kefir when cooking should be at room temperature, it is better not to use it right away from the refrigerator, let it stand for a while. An ingredient such as yeast is very important (if it appears in a recipe), the more fresh the product is, the better.
