Dough for plastins

Placcinas are one of the most popular Moldovan dishes. Some cooks compare them with cakes, others - with pies. Placinda are products of thin dough with a filling. Usually they are made from exhaust dough, which is prepared in water. Sometimes they use more tender dough on kefir or prepare the dough with the addition of yeast. Products can be baked in the oven or fry in a pan. Placids made in the oven resemble rolls rolled up by a snail, they look more like cakes. Pan-fried products are more similar to flat cakes, but of a peculiar form. The dough for the plate can be made according to different recipes, but it must be elastic so that it can be stretched into the thinnest layer.

Cooking Features

To prepare the right dough for Moldovan Placindas, you need not only to comply with the recipe, but also to use the appropriate technology. Without knowledge of some subtleties, the result may be far from the expectations of the chef.

  • Only high-quality flour can be used to make a dough for platinum; its high content of fiber plays a crucial role. From flour with a low content of fiber dough will come out inelastic.
  • To make the dough more elastic, vegetable oil is most often added to it, but eggs are rarely used, and even if they are put into the dough, then in a small amount.
  • The main secret of the exhaust dough is its long kneading by hand. But significant efforts when kneading exhaust dough can not be applied, otherwise it will turn out too dense and unyielding.
  • Before cooking, the dough must be given a chance to rest. In order for the fiber to swell, it takes at least half an hour. As a result, the elasticity of the test increases markedly.
  • The finished (and rested) dough is divided into several parts. For frying in a pan, these parts are made larger so that the cake is just the size of the pan used. From half a kilogram of flour usually comes 6-10 of such flat cakes. Fillings put about as much as the dough weighs.
  • Roll out the paste dough for platinum in two steps. First, it makes cakes the size of about a snack plate or less. They are oiled and spread on each other, 4-6 pieces in a pile. After 10 minutes or more, flat cakes are rolled out one by one or pulled by hand, stuffed, form products that are fried in butter or baked in the oven. Some housewives prefer to roll or stretch cakes not into round, but into rectangular layers.

When forming a plate for cooking in a pan, the stuffing is put in the center, then the dough is folded in an envelope, its corners are dragged off and folded to the center. Another option is to cut the dough from the filling to the brim and bend to the center of the “rays”. When frying, the plate is laid in the pan “seams” down, and then turned over.
