Pirozhki day 1
It is late at night and the cheeki breeki hardbass anthem has been on loop for 3 hours. A deep hunger for Slavic food comes over you, and so begins your journey to make pirozhki
Fuck that, I want burek
First I heated 2 cups of milk to about 100 degrees, took half a cup and added a packet of yeast and a tablespoon of sugar. Then let it sit for a few minutes.

Fuck. Sideways.
Next I added the mix, the warm milk, and 3 cups flour into a bowl and mixed them. Thought the dough was a little dry so I added a splash of milk.

piroshki are leavened and baked or fried with usually precooked fillings.
I made some the other day because my babushka passed away. I make pelmeni more often because its easier, they're essentially pierogies.
for piroshki my filling is usually a combo of beef chuck that I grind at home, sometimes some liver, onion, and hard boiled egg. I use msg in it and towards the end of cooking I mix a little flour, water, and sour cream to add to the pan to thicken it and make ingredients stick together.
slav overload

More or less.
Grabbed self rising flour by accident. I really need to label that shit. I also made the dough too thick but that's about it.
Ugly as fuck btw

damn son, that hits hard
my babcia (im polish) is still around in her eighties right now, and im making pierogi like she taught me tomorrow.
Fuck I used to get pirozhki all the time when I lived in San Francisco. Some damn good russian bakeries there. Best comfort food of all time.
