A simple yeast dough, mixed with “fast”, instant yeast, can be prepared at home even by an inexperienced cook without any hassle. You will need: – ½ teaspoon of instant yeast; – 100 ml of milk or water; – 1 ½ cup of wheat flour; – 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter; – 1 teaspoon of sugar; – 1 chicken egg; – ½ teaspoon of finely ground salt …
Sift flour and salt, mix with dry yeast. Heat milk or water to a temperature of 25-30 ° С, melt butter in liquid and dissolve sugar. Make a depression in the flour, pour in the liquid and knead the dough. Separate the yolk from the white and add the latter to the dough. Knead until the dough is firm and elastic, add more flour or water if necessary. Divide the finished dough into 6 equal parts and roll them into neat strips 2-3 centimeters wide, twice as long as the sausages you are going to wrap in them.
