Workshops in Krakow

We may organize your dumplings workshops

Encourage your group to have fun. A fun and productive day of kneading dumpling dough awaits you! You will prepare the stuffing for potato and cheese dumplings and cabbage and mushroom dumplings. You will prepare everything from start to finish, until the very end – that is, until the dumplings are consumed. Below is a recipe for dumplings with cheese and potatoes and a recipe for dumplings with cabbage and mushrooms. We invite you!

Here is a recipe for making pierogi:

Ingredients:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 large egg
• 1/2 cup sour cream
• 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1 cup mashed potatoes, warm
• 1 cup sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
• 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, cold
• 2 large shallots, diced; or one medium onion, sliced

Instructions:

Mix together the flour and salt. Add the egg to the flour and combine. The dough will be quite clumpy at this stage. Work in the sour cream and soft butter until the dough comes together in a slightly rough, slightly sticky ball. Using just your fingertips, knead and fold the dough without adding additional flour until the dough becomes less sticky but still quite moist. Wrap the dough well in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 to 60 minutes, or up to 48 hours.
Combine the warm mashed potato and cheese. Stir and mash until the cheese is melted and the filling is cool to the touch. Taste and adjust the seasonings with salt and pepper.
Roll half the dough 1/8″ thick. Use a 2″ round cutter to cut circles of dough. Repeat with the other half of the dough. Save the scraps; these can be snipped into small pieces and added to simmering soups.
Place 1 1/2 teaspoons of filling on each round of dough. Gently fold the dough over, forming a pocket around the filling. Pinch the edges of the pie…
