OLD FASHIONED SOUR CREAM KLUSKI DOUGH (NOODLES, DUMPLINGS, PIEROGI DOUGH) image

Categories     Egg

Number Of Ingredients 6

2-1/4 cup of flour
1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp butter, melted
1 egg
3 Tbsp sour cream, heaping
1/8 - 1/4 warm water

Steps:

  • In a medium sized mixing bowl, stir salt into the flour. Add butter, sour cream, and egg; mix to incorporate. Slowly add a little water at a time while mixing until dough comes together nicely. Turn dough out on floured surface. Knead until smooth. Wrap in plastic wrap and chill overnight or for at least 2 hours before rolling out. Kluski Dough 2 Roll the dough out on a floured surface; cut into strips. Separate strips and toss liberally with flour. Allow kluski to sit for at least 20 minutes before boiling, giving the dough time to rest. Kluski Dough 3 Take a few handful of noodles, shaking the excess flour off, toss into a pot of rapidly boiling salted water. Boil for about 10 minutes. Remove from water with slotted spoon to colander to rinse and drain. At this point I normally stir in a teaspoon of butter for flavor and so the noodles won't stick together. Continue until all of the noodles are cooked. Add more water to the pot in between batches and allow the water to return to boiling before adding the next batch of noodles. These noodles freeze fairly well. Toss liberally with flour. Evenly distribute noodles in one layer on a sheet pan. Place pan in freezer until noodles are frozen. Store in freezer bags until ready to use. This recipe is also the same recipe I use for pierogi and dumplings. This recipe does not keep well in the refrigerator for more than 24 hours.
