Recipe By : The Jewish Festival Cookbook, p 110
Serving Size : 24 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Breads (Yeasted) Cookies
Jewish

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
1 envelope dry yeast
1/4 cup milk — lukewarm
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup milk — scalded
2 eggs — slightly beaten
4 cups all-purpose flour
1 egg yolk

Dissolve the yeast in the 1/4 cup of lukewarm milk, making certain
that the milk is not too warm. Stir in 1 tablespoon of sugar and set
aside. In a deep mixing bowl, combine the butter, remaining sugar, salt
and scalded milk, and stir until all are blended. When lukewarm, stir in
the yeast. Add the eggs and about 2 cups of the flour, and beat to a
smooth batter. Add remaining flour to make a tender dough. Turn out on a
floured board and knead for about 2 minutes. Grease a large mixing bowl;
grease whole surface of the large ball of dough and place dough in bowl.
Cover. Let rise in a warm, not hot, place, to double its bulk. (Takes
from 2 to 4 hours.) Again knead on a floured board for about a minute.
Roll out 1/8 of an inch thick. Cut into 3- to 4-inch circles.
Place filling on each. Recipe for Mohn Filling follow. To shape
true hamantaschen, pinch eges of a circle together over filling, leaving
about 1/2 open, forming a cornucopia. Then fold over the flap and pinch
these edges firmly together. Arrange well apart on a greased cookie
sheet. Cover with a cloth and let rise again in a wam place to double in
bulk. Brush tops with the egg yolk, thinned with a little water. Bake in
a moderate oven (350°F) for 15 to 20 minutes. Makes 2 to 2 1/2 dozen.

To make fruit leather:
Select ripe or slightly overripe produce (combinations also if desired).
Wash, remove any blemishes, stems or pits and peal produce if desired.
(Skins are highly nutritious.) Puree the produce in a blender until
it is smooth.

Pour 1 1/2 to 2 cups of puree on to the parchment paper or plastic
wrap covered trays of dehydrator. Since the edges tend to dry more
rapidly, the poured puree should be 1/8″ thick at the center and 1/4″
thick at the edges. Place in the dehydrator with temperature set at
135. Average drying time for leathers is 4 to 6 hours. When the
leather has dried, it will be a bit shiny and non-sticky to the touch.
Allow the leather to cool and peel it from the tray. Roll it into a
tight cylindrical shape. A piece of plastic wrap, measured to fit
the length and widith, is then tightly wrapped around the leather.
