👨🍳 Istruzioni

For the dough: In a large bowl, combine flour and 1 teaspoon of salt. In a separate bowl, stir together sour cream and baking soda. Add water to the flour mixture and blend in, followed by the sour cream mixture. Knead into a smooth dough, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes.

Divide the dough into 4 portions. Roll each portion into a 1/2-inch thick rope, then cut into 1/2-inch pieces. Flatten each piece into a small circle. Place about 1 teaspoon of filling in the center of each circle. Fold the dough over to create a half-moon shape and seal the edges tightly.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a gentle boil. Add the varenyky in batches and cook until they float to the surface, about 3 minutes. Cook for 2-3 minutes more.

Remove varenyky from water with a slotted spoon and serve immediately with sour cream, butter, or fried onions.
💡 Consigli Professionali
- ✓Ensure the dough is elastic and does not stick to your hands.
- ✓Don't overcook the varenyky, as the filling may escape the dough.
- ✓For a vegetarian version, omit any meat products and ensure your broth is vegetable-based.
- ✓Varenyky can be frozen before or after boiling. If freezing uncooked, place them on a floured baking sheet until firm, then transfer to a freezer bag. Cook from frozen, adding a few extra minutes to the boiling time.
