Filling :
1 ½ Cup of cooked new potatoes ( I used Poplar Bluff Organics new potatoes !!) mashed , leave skin on
1 TBSP melted butter
1 TBSP Highwood Crossing first press Organic Canola Oil
1 tsp chopped fine sweet onion
¼ zest of a lemon
1 tbp horseradish
10 ml buttermilk
1 egg yolk
Mix all ingredients together add salt/pepper to taste
Dough:
1C Bread Flour
1C Pastry Flour
1 egg yolk
1 whole egg
buttermilk – enough to make dough – start with ¼ cup
pinch sea salt
Mix dry ingredients. Combine egg yolks with 2/3 of the buttermilk, mix into dry gradually, then add more buttermilk mixture until a fully formed well mixed ball comes away from the sides of the bowl.
Let rest for 10 minutes – covered. Sprinkle a little amount of flour on board. Divide dough and roll thin. Cut circles and fill , pinch sides to close
A little fancy pants sour cream to finish:
½ cup sour cream… not light or diet free!
Add ¼ cup chopped fine smoked salmon
Add small amount chopped fine red onion ( approx 1 Tbsp or to your desire)
Small amount of fresh chives ( approx 1/12 -2 chives)
Add perogies to salted simmering water, wait until they float to the top, remove, eat as they are. Or pan fry in sauté pan with melted butter and a touch of first press Canola oil until crisp. Of course adding sautéed bacon and onions to this would be amazing. Enjoy!
