Tips:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n
You can omit the dried mushrooms, supplement them or replace them with champignons, fresh or frozen wild mushrooms.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
You can cover the kneaded dough tightly and put it in the fridge overnight. The dough will rise overnight in the refrigerator and you can continue making the patties the next day. Remember to take the dough out of the fridge before baking so that it can reach room temperature.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
You don’t need a rolling pin to prepare these pasties. The dough is so soft and elastic that you can easily stretch it with your hands.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
You can use both fresh and dry yeast to prepare the dough.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
Do not rinse the sauerkraut before frying. Sauerkraut should be sour!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
How to prepare the stuffing for patties with cabbage and mushrooms?<\/strong> Just fry chopped onion, sauerkraut and previously soaked dried mushrooms. Season the stuffing with pepper, salt, caraway seeds, allspice and bay leaves. When the cabbage changes color from white to brown and the onion is soft, the stuffing is ready. Remember to stuff the patties with the cooled stuffing. You can prepare the stuffing the day before.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What kind of dough for the patties?<\/strong> The patties are made from yeast dough, which differs from pizza dough by having more yeast, addition butter, egg yolks and milk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How thick should the pastry dough be rolled out?<\/strong> The dough for the patties should be approximately 2-3 mm thick. The thinner you can roll the dough, the more patties you will be able to prepare. If you prefer thick dough, you can roll the dough thicker \ud83d\ude09.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How to wrap patties?<\/strong> You can make one large roll and cut it into pieces after baking, or make individual patties. You can also form balls of dough, flatten them with your fingers, stuff them and prepare baked dumplings with cabbage and mushrooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
At what temperature and how long do we bake the patties?<\/strong> Place the patties in an oven preheated to 200\u00b0C (392\u00b0F) and bake for about 25 minutes. We use the conventional heatinc without a fan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What to serve cabbage and mushroom patties with?<\/strong> The patties go perfectly with Christmas Eve borscht or mushroom soup.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How to store baked patties?<\/strong> Store the baked patties in the refrigerator in an airtight container for up to 4-5 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How to heat the patties so that they are not dry?<\/strong> You can heat the baked patties in a microwave, on a toaster, on an electric grill, covered in a pan, in an airfryer, in an oven or in a steam oven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How long should you heat the patties in the oven?<\/strong> Place the patties in the oven preheated to 200\u00b0C (392\u00b0F) and heat for 5-8 minutes. You can spray the oven with water or place a baking tray with water underneath. The steam in the oven will make the patties as soft as freshly baked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Can you freeze cabbage and mushroom patties?<\/strong> Of course! Place the cooled patties in a plastic container or bag and place in the freezer. When you feel like eating patties, take them out of the freezer and put them in a preheated oven at 200\u00b0C (392\u00b0F). Bake for 15-20 minutes until warm in the center. Don’t defrost them in advance or they will become rubbery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How many days in advance can the patties be made? When to make Christmas Eve pies?<\/strong> The patties taste best fresh, but if you put the baked and cooled patties in an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator, you can prepare the patties even 3-4 days in advance. Just warm them up before Christmas Eve and they will taste like freshly baked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can prepare patties using these 2 semi-finished products in 5 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What can you make yeast patties with?<\/strong> Yeast patties can be made classically with cabbage and mushroom filling or with meat. You can also prepare a mini calzone from the pastry dough. You can fill the patty with a filling similar to Bolognese sauce, make stuffing with potatoes and cracklings, or Mexican stuffing with meat, beans and corn, stuffing with fried black pudding and onion, Christmas stuffing with meat, buckwheat and cranberries. Vegan fillings are also perfect, e.g. with mushrooms or with lentils, carrots and tomatoes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/a><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
