Cut the pumpkin into 2 cm pieces and pre-boil. Next, pour 1 cup of semolina with kefir for about one hour. Then add boiled pumpkin, previously ground in a kitchen mixer, to the swollen semolina. Combine everything together and pour in 3 grams of soda and 50 grams of sugar. Beat thoroughly until smooth. Pour into a special form and bake for 30 minutes.

Attention! Preheat the oven and grease the pan in advance.

Step-by-step preparation

Dough

1. In a deep bowl, sift through a fine sieve 500 g of premium wheat flour, 3 g of baking soda, 3 g of baking powder. Mix the dry ingredients thoroughly with a whisk.
2. Pour 360 ml of kefir of any fat content, 40 ml of odorless vegetable oil (olive or refined sunflower) into a separate spacious bowl, then break 1 chicken egg at room temperature and add 4 g of salt. Whisk the ingredients until a homogeneous consistency is obtained.
3. Combine the liquid and dry mixtures in one bowl, then knead a homogeneous dough that sticks quite strongly to your hands.
4. Cover the dough with cling film and leave at room temperature for 20 minutes.

Filling

1. Boil about 1 kg of potatoes in salted water, then grind them to a puree using a potato masher.
2. Peel onions weighing about 100 g, finely chop them with a knife and fry until golden in a well-heated frying pan with a small amount of vegetable oil. Chop a small bunch of dill very finely with a knife. Add fried onions and chopped herbs to a bowl of mashed potatoes, as well as salt and ground black pepper to taste.
3. Stir the filling ingredients until a homogeneous mass is obtained.

Pies

1. Sprinkle the work surface generously with flour and place the rested dough on it. Knead the dough with your hands and then divide it in half to make it easier to work with.
2. We return one part to the bowl and cover with cling film, and roll the second into a sausage, which in turn is divided into 12-13 pieces.
3. We collect each piece of dough into a neat ball and place it on a flat surface.
4. Roll out the ball with a rolling pin into a round cake, in the center of which we place the allowable amount of potato filling.
5. We carefully fasten the edges of the cake, forming a neat oval pie.
6. Place the formed product on a baking sheet, which we first cover with baking paper or grease with a small amount of vegetable oil.
7. Separately, beat 1 chicken egg thoroughly. Lubricate each pie thoroughly with the resulting egg mixture, and then sprinkle it with sesame seeds.
8. We send the products to an oven heated to 180-190°C. Bake the pies for 25 minutes.

How to prepare “Peremyachi on kefir”

1. I offer a classic recipe for kefir meatballs. First you need to dissolve the yeast, sugar and salt - make a dough, leaving it for fifteen minutes.

2. Melt the butter and cool it a little, then add sour cream and mix everything thoroughly. Pour the mixture into a deep bowl, adding flour. Make a well into which pour the yeast mixture. Add the remaining flour and make a soft dough. It will be ready when it starts to come off your hands. Pour vegetable oil onto the work surface and mix the dough. The finished dough is very elastic. Pour some oil onto your work surface and knead the dough. Leave it to rise for thirty minutes, covered with cling film. I knead it several times and after the third rise I prepare it for baking.

3. Next, prepare the minced meat and add finely chopped onions to it. Then salt, pepper and add seasonings. Add chopped garlic and herbs, as well as a little water (to make the minced meat more juicy).

4. Divide the dough into even pieces, approximately 50-60 grams each. Next, roll the balls and make small cakes out of them. Place 1 tablespoon of prepared minced meat on each of them.

5. I pinch the edges in the shape of a “skirt” and leave a hole in the middle, where I then put the filling.

6. Next, heat the vegetable oil and fry in a frying pan for 3-4 minutes on each side. First fry the exposed side with the filling. Make sure that the heat is medium - this way you will fry the meatballs evenly and until done.

7. Transfer the finished meatballs to a dish, garnish with herbs and top with sour cream if desired.

Without yeast

Ingredients: a cut glass of medium-fat kefir (slightly acidified is possible), 0.5 tsp. coarse salt and baking soda, 1.5-2 faceted glasses of high-grade flour.

1. First of all, kefir is put into a bowl. The fermented milk product should not be cold. It is best to use glass containers for mixing all ingredients.
2. Add baking soda to cold kefir. You need to carefully mix the ingredients with a spatula and leave them alone for 6-7 minutes. During this time, the fermented milk product will begin to thicken and small bubbles will appear on its surface. Depending on the quality of the ingredients, this may take a little longer.
3. Flour and salt are immediately added to the prepared kefir. It is advisable to first pass the products through the finest sieve. This will enrich the flour with oxygen.
4. The dough is kneaded with a wide spatula, as it is very sticky. Doing this with your hands is simply inconvenient.
5. Next, the bowl with the mixed mass is covered with cling film and left for 35-45 minutes. The dough will stand at room temperature.

From the resulting base you can make not only any pie, but even homemade pizza.

Several recipes for making dough with soda and kefir

You can prepare fluffy dough with homemade kefir and baking soda not only for pies, but also for a large number of delicious dishes. Kefir dough is prepared faster and easier; no special skills are required.

Pies in a frying pan

Before preparing pies with kefir and soda powder, you need to decide what they will be with. The filling can be sweet (fruit, cottage cheese, jam or marmalade) and salty (mushrooms, potatoes, meat, liver, greens with egg). The choice will help the housewife decide on the amount of sugar and salt in the dough. Depending on the taste of the filling, the concentration of each component can be increased by 2 times.

The pies cook very quickly due to the instant reaction of kefir with soda

To prepare you will need:

• fermented milk drink (kefir) – 0.5 liters;
• baking soda – 1 teaspoon;
• raw eggs – 2 pcs. (you can limit yourself to only yolks);
• salt – 0.5 tsp;
• sugar – 0.5 tbsp. l.;
• flour is added at the discretion of the housewife, the dough should not stick to your hands, but also not be tight;
• vegetable oil for frying;
• ready filling.

Kefir must be poured into a suitable container and soda powder added there.

You cannot mix all the ingredients at once; the fermented milk drink and sodium bicarbonate must react within 10-15 minutes.

When interacting, small bubbles form on the surface of the liquid.

In a separate bowl, mix eggs, salt and sugar until a homogeneous consistency is formed. Afterwards, mix the kefir-soda mass and beaten eggs. Then gradually add flour, knead the dough, and leave it for 20 minutes in a warm place.

Carefully mold the pies, add the prepared filling inside, fry over low heat, covered, on both sides. The readiness of the pie is determined simply. A well-fried product becomes light. It is recommended to place the finished pies on a napkin to absorb excess oil.

Preparing pizza dough

To prepare pizza you need:

• kefir (or sour milk) – 200 ml;
• soda – 0.5 tsp;
• margarine or butter – 100 g;
• eggs – 2 pcs.;
• salt – 1 tsp;
• flour - 3 or 4 cups, depending on the quality of flour.

Margarine must be melted in a water bath. Mix the fermented milk product with soda and let stand for at least 15 minutes. Then combine margarine with eggs, kefir-soda mixture and salt, mix the mixture thoroughly and gradually add flour. After cooking, the resulting mass should stand for 20 minutes.

Pizza made with baking soda is considered the fastest to prepare and the most delicious.

Various products are used as fillings, such as meat, seafood, vegetables, herbs and cheeses. A must-have base for delicious pizza is a tomato base. You can make it yourself or buy it ready-made.

The baking sheet must be greased or sprinkled with flour so that the pizza does not stick during baking. Roll out the dough with a rolling pin, it should not be thick, you should always remember to add volume during baking. Distribute the rolled out cake along the edges, be sure to make small sides so that the filling does not fall out. Apply the prepared tomato base to the entire surface of the cake, distributing evenly. Place the chopped filling on top, then sprinkle everything with cheese. Pizza is baked for 30-35 minutes at a temperature of 180 degrees.

Cooking dumplings and dumplings

Kefir-soda dough for dumplings and dumplings is distinguished by its tenderness and lightness. When cooked, the products become airy and tasty. This base is universal for all dumplings and dumplings, regardless of the filling.

To prepare you will need:

All ingredients must be mixed. Moreover, you need to take into account that for dumplings the dough needs to be made tighter, and preparing dumplings requires a softer consistency. Finished products do not cook for long; after they float, you need to wait 5-8 minutes and then remove them from the water. Serve with butter or sour cream.

Using soda powder in combination with fermented milk products to prepare dough has proven to be an excellent way to improve the taste of your favorite dishes. Thanks to this, even an inexperienced cook can successfully cope with complex recipes.
