Why housewives confuse dumplings and dumplings: I understand what the difference is (plus a recipe for dumplings and two options for serving)

Admin

"I only love dumplings stuffed with meat! 😀 "- my husband's answer to my phrase:" Should I cook dumplings for dinner... "

Hello friends! This is "Kitchen Inside Out". When I was a girl, I did not see any difference between dumplings and dumplings. Both are boiled dough. But when I started cooking, I realized what the difference was.

Dumplings are pieces of dough boiled in water or broth. They are prepared from both wheat flour and buckwheat; potatoes, cottage cheese, grated apples, semolina, garlic are often added to the dough... Serve with first courses, as a side dish or as an independent dish. You can cook dumplings without eggs (I have lean soup recipe with such dumplings)

Today, on my YouTube channel, I shared a recipe for dumplings (this is how my grandmother cooked).

The dough here is very simple. Sift flour, add water, then eggs mixed with salt and melted butter. I knead a smooth soft dough.

See the end of the article for the exact amount of ingredients and a short video with my explanations.

I put the finished dough in a bag and leave it for 20 minutes. Then I spread it on a board, roll it out 5-6 mm thick and cut into small cubes.

In fact, it doesn't matter how you cut, you can use rhombuses, rectangles - all the same. I love it when the dumplings are small, but the size can also be different.

You don't have to cut the dough. When I have no time, I simply pinch off pieces of dough and throw them into the water. It turns out not so smooth, but still tasty)) But I like the squares more:

Boil in salted water until tender. It's about 10 minutes. I filter it through a sieve.

You can serve in different ways!

First submission option - with butter.

I heat butter in a frying pan. I spread the ready-made dumplings and fry for several minutes over high heat. Serve with sour cream.

You can brown it more or not fry at all - whoever likes it))

Second filing option - with mops.

I cut the bacon into small cubes, fry in a pan. And then I send the greaves into a plate with dumplings. You can add fried onions - it will be even tastier))

Here they are, dumplings! What are dumplings?

Basically, it's almost the same. Dumplings differ little from dumplings in taste, and they are served similarly. But dumplings are made from a thinner dough. All the ingredients are mixed in a bowl and then dipped directly into the broth or salted water with a spoon. It must include flour and eggs.

The dumplings are usually round or oval in shape. More often they are added to first courses.

But of course I could be wrong. Perhaps the difference between dumplings and dumplings is not that. Write in the comments if you know.

For example, here's one of the comments under my dumplings recipe:

INGREDIENTS:

For the test:
• Flour - 2 glasses
• Water - 0.5 cups
• Eggs - 2 pcs.
• Butter (melted) - 2 tbsp.
• Salt - 1 tsp.
For filing:
