Pies are one of the most popular types of pastries. Each of us has the favourite taste and a stuffing and even a form of pies.

However it is worth noticing that the pastries form also depends on the test and what in it will be wrapped.

  • dough

Instruction

1. A lot of things depend on structure and a type of the test, not only taste, but also a form. If you have a usual yeast dough, then it is worth molding accurately flat cakes for pies. Their thickness has to be identical on all diameter. Otherwise, if to make roundels very thick, the stuffing will remain imperceptible and if thin, then pies turn out rigid. Yeast dough easily gives in to formation.

2. If you are going to fry pies and you use as a stuffing, for example, berries or jam, then it is desirable to give them the form just before frying. Otherwise dough can thaw and begin to flow, pie will blur and will be inaccurate.

3. Puff pastry also has the secrets for giving of a form as it has multilayered structure, it should be taken into account it at distribution of a stuffing. If to roll puff pastry, then when baking the layers won't be blown up, pies will be more dense. When forming edge moisten with water, connect and leave for a couple of minutes. Thus pies won't disperse, and the stuffing will remain inside.

4. It is necessary to tell about how form samosa, belyash and rasstegai separately. Samosa is cooked from puff pastry which rolls out in the form of a square. As these pies have a triangle appearance, the stuffing gives all the best on one half and from above is covered with the second half of the test, the triangle turns out. Belyash has round shape therefore it is worth rolling evenly dough in the form of flat cake, to put a stuffing in the middle, to zashchepit edges around. Rasstegais are small fish pies, they are formed especially. On the middle of flat cake lay out a stuffing, begin to pinch edges a string from one edge and, without reaching the middle, on the other hand. In the middle leave a small hole. And rasstegai is formed.
