Dill Soup:
|
Fill a kettle 1/2 full of water, add
a little salt, and put in a handfull
of dill. (From your garden of
course)
Boil this for 5 minutes.
While this is boiling, pour a carton
of half and half into a bowl and add
about 5 tablespoons of flour and mix
to get the lumps out. After the
lumps are out, add the half and half
to the boiling mixture.
Then throw a little brown vinegar in
the boiling water, about 3-4
tablespoon full, and get to the
boiling stage again.
Drop in 6 eggs and break the yolks
as you are doing this. Now, do not
mix the soup for about 5 minutes.
Simmer for around 5-8 mintues and
good luck!!!! This is sooooo good,
(if you like dill and eggs).

Kolace':
|
Ingredients: |
|
|
|
|
| |
•
2 1/2
cups milk |
•
2
eggs |
| |
•
2 pkg yeast |
•
2
tsp salt |
| |
•
1/2 cup vegtable oil |
•
6 - 6 1/2 cups Gold Medal
Bread Flour |
| |
•
1/2 cup sugar |
•
3 "Solo" pastry fill cans |
| |
|
|
|
|
|
Method: Dissolve the yeast in the
milk which has been scalded and
cooled to "baby formula"
temperature.
Add
all the following at once, oil,
sugar, eggs, salt and about 3/4 of
the flour. Mix thoroughly with a
spoon.
Then add the rest of the flour
gradually, mixing well. You may not
use all of the flour, but it is hard
to handle the dough later if you
don't.
The
dough needs to be soft and sticky to
make kolace' which do no push out
the fills when baking. When finished
working the dough with the spoon or
hand till it is smooth, turn into an
oiled bowl for rising. Cover with
saran wrap.
Put
to rise in warm place. Upon doubling
in bulk, punch down the dough. Let
rise until doubled again. Turn out
on floured board and shape into
balls and place on greased cookie
sheets. (Three balls to width of
cookie sheet). Oil these balls by
brushing with oil or rolling in oil.
When these have risen till doubled
in bulk, make the depression in the
center of each by pressing and
stretching till the center is almost
"paper thin". Leave a small "collar"
of dough on outside perimeter of
bun. Place into the center a rounded
tablespoon of fruit fill, flattening
it almost to the rim of the bun.
Allow to rise till the dough is very
light.
Bake at 350 degrees for 15 minutes
or till dough is browned well.
Makes about 4 dozen kolace'. Enjoy!

BASIC SWEET DOUGH
This may be used for Kalache(open or closed), Rohlicky,
Buns, Vanocka, Koblihy, and Easter Ring.
4 C.warm water
2Tbs. salt
1 C. sugar
3 large eggs(rm.temp.)
2/3 C. oil
11-12 C. flour
3Tbs. quick rising yeast
1/4 tsp. ginger
nutmeg to taste(1/2 tsp.)Grandma said that this gave the
dough a good flavor.
It works very well if you use the dough cycle on your
bread machine to mix and let the dough raise. You may
have to adjust the recipe's size to fit your machine.
KOBLIHY

1/4" thick. Cut with a round cookie cutter. Place l tsp.
poppy seed or filling of choice on the round. Top it
