Well, now that you are all ready to go, you'll be ready at the end

of the month!

Meanwhile, I just HAD to try pelmenji again. The last batch, you may

recall, we made with buckwheat flour. They tasted yummy ... but

the sight of little dark brown dumplings floating in water .... I just couldn't

look at them without cracking up and there was this choking danger.

So I tried them again with white flour ...

4 egg yolks

1/4 cup potato flour

1/2 cup kefiili

1/2 t salt

1/3 cup oil

keep adding rice flour til it makes a nice dough

I didn't want to wait for it to ferment, so I just kneaded

it into little wrappers (ala wonton) and wrapped it around

some spiced ground beef, then dropped into boiling water.

Really good! I froze them for later, when I have some

soup stock. I also used them like dough, to make

" pop tarts " (jam filled) and made one cheese filled

ravioli. The consistancy was wonderful, it would make

a good pie shell too. I'm not sure WHY it is so amenable

and easy to work with.

Anyway, I think this means just about ANY flour will

work. The egg yolks or the kefiili make it work?

or maybe just the right amount of water? Really

noodly ...
