   Rehydrate the dried sea cabbage by soaking it in warm water for at least 30 minutes, or according to package directions. Drain well and chop finely.

   💡 نصائح احترافية: Ensure sea cabbage is thoroughly rinsed if it has a strong odor.

   Prepare the dough: In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Make a well in the center and add the egg and warm water. Mix until a shaggy dough forms, then turn out onto a floured surface and knead for 8-10 minutes until smooth and elastic.

   ⏱️ 10 minutes

   💡 نصائح احترافية: The dough should be firm but pliable.

   Assemble the varenyky: Roll out the dough thinly on a floured surface. Cut out circles using a glass or cookie cutter (about 3 inches in diameter).

   💡 نصائح احترافية: Keep the dough covered while you work to prevent it from drying out.
7. 7

   Place a teaspoon of filling in the center of each dough circle. Moisten the edges with water and fold the dough in half, pressing firmly to seal. Ensure there are no gaps.

   💡 نصائح احترافية: A tight seal is crucial to prevent the filling from leaking out during cooking.
8. 8

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil. Carefully drop the varenyky into the boiling water, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Stir gently to prevent sticking.

   💡 نصائح احترافية: Cook in batches if necessary.
