👨‍🍳 조리법

1. 1

   For the crust: Mix rye flour, all-purpose flour, and salt in a bowl. Gradually add lukewarm water, mixing until a firm dough forms. Knead for 5-7 minutes until smooth. Cover and let rest for 30 minutes.

2. 2

   For the filling: Cook rice with milk, butter, and salt until thick and creamy, stirring frequently. This will take about 20-30 minutes. Let it cool slightly.

3. 3

   Preheat oven to 250°C (480°F).

4. 4

   Divide the dough into 12 equal portions. Roll each portion into a thin, oval shape (about 15 cm long) on a lightly floured surface. The dough should be very thin, almost translucent.

   💡 전문가 팁: Use a rolling pin and work quickly. If the dough is sticky, lightly dust with rye flour.
5. 5

   Place a spoonful of the rice filling onto one half of each oval dough. Fold the other half over the filling and pinch the edges to seal, creating a small pocket. Crimp the edges decoratively.

6. 6

   Place the pasties on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until the crust is lightly browned and crisp.

   While the pasties are baking, prepare the egg butter: Mash the hard-boiled eggs with softened butter and salt until smooth. You can also finely chop the eggs and mix them in.

   💡 전문가 팁: Ensure the butter is at room temperature for easy mixing.

   Once baked, immediately brush the hot Karjalanpiirakka with melted shortening or butter. This softens the crust and adds flavor. Serve warm with egg butter.
