Chicken dumplings with cherry dumplings how to make boiled dough

The name speaks for itself: the dough is “brewed”, as boiling water is added to it - always boiling, and not just hot. It is appreciated for its excellent working properties: it is malleable, thinly rolls out, hardly dries. And for its delicious taste, it is often preferred not only with ordinary but also with sweet fillings. We will talk about all this below.

Important: before kneading with your hands, you can use a mixer with a special nozzle for kneading. You can knead from beginning to end in a combine to prevent the mass from cooling down too much.

Classic proportions.

Suitable for anyone interested in how to make choux pastry for dumplings without the use of eggs. The ingredients are the simplest, and the result is impressive (as in the photo).

You will need:

• flour - 400 grams;
• salt - 0.5 teaspoon;
• vegetable oil - 50 milliliters;
• boiling water - 250 milliliters.

Cooking

1. Add oil, salt, 1/2 volume of flour to boiling water, while stirring with a spoon.
2. Start kneading with your hands when the temperature of the mass becomes acceptable, then adding flour.
3. Achieve uniformity (lumps should disappear) - the texture should be dense, soft, smooth, similar to plasticine.

You can start sculpting right away, but if the mass seems very “cool” to you, it’s enough to put it in a bag for 30 minutes - the necessary plasticity will appear.
