Title: Varenyky (Filled Dumplings)
Categories: Soups, Bread, Russian, Christmas
Servings: 10

5 c Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
1 ts Salt
2 tb Butter
1 c Evaporated Milk; NOT
-Condensed Milk
1/2 c ;Water, As Needed

Combine the flour and salt in a large bowl, forming a well in the middle.
Add the butter and milk and mix lightly until the flour is absorbed. (Add
a little warm water as needed.) Knead until the dough sticks together,
cover and allow to rest for a few minutes, then knead until smooth. Cover
and set aside. (This dough should be somewhat soft, since more flour will
be added as the dough is rolled out.) Or, in a processor, combine the
flour, salt, and butter, stirring a few times, then with the machine
running, add liquids until a ball forms. Allow to rest for a few minutes
and then process until smooth. Place the dough in a lightly oiled bowl,
turn, and cover for about 30 minutes. (It may be wrapped in plastic and
refrigerated for a day or so, brought to room temperature and then rolled
out.) Place a fourth of the dough on a floured work surface, re-covering
the rest of the dough. Roll into a circle, starting at the center and
rolling outwards to maintain an even thickness, turn over and again from
the center, roll the dough out to about 1/8-inch thickness. Run a hand
under the bottom to loosen it. With a 3-inch biscuit cutter or wine
glass, cut into rounds. When done cutting, place 1 Tb of the filling on
one side of each, flipping the other half over the top and sealing with
your fingers or a fork. Make sure each is sealed or the filling will come
out when cooked. Place each of the dumplings on a floured cookie sheet,
keeping the dumplings covered with a towel. Repeat with the remaining
dough, saving the scraps until last. Use as little flour as possible in
this process or the scraps will be come tough and heavy. Gently drop 12
to 15 varenyky into 3 quarts of boiling water, in a large wide pot or
Dutch oven. Do NOT overcrowd. Stir and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes.
Drain in a collander and place on a lightly oiled cookies sheet, shaking
to coat with a thin film to prevent sticking. Do NOT pile the dumplings
on top of each other as this distorts their shape. If the varenyky are to
be frozen, remove with a slotted spoon when they float to the top. DO NOT
overcook. To freeze. place in the freezer on an oiled cookie sheet when
tepid (lukewarm). When they are rigid, store in tightly sealed plastic
bags.

TO SERVE:

Varenyky may be poached, pan-fried or steamed, served as an accompaniment
or meats or served with sour cream, chopped sauteed onions or fried bacon
with a little bacon fat.

Title: Syrups
Categories: Canning
Yield: 1 text

Adding syrup to canned fruit helps to retain its flavor, color, and
shape. It does not prevent spoilage of these foods. The guidelines for
preparing and using syrups (Table 1) offer a new “very light” syrup,
which approximates the natural sugar content of many fruits. The sugar
content in each of the five syrups is increased by about 10 percent.
Quantities of water and sugar to make enough syrup for a canner load of
pints or quarts are provided for each syrup type.

Procedure: Heat water and sugar together. Bring to a boil and pour over
raw fruits in jars. For hot packs, bring water and sugar to boil, add
fruit, reheat to boil, and fill into jars immediately.

Other sweeteners: Light corn syrups or mild-flavored honey may be used
to replace up to half the table sugar called for in syrups. For more
information see Canned Foods for Special Diets.

Table 1. Preparing and using syrups.
(Measure of Water and Sugar)

Syrup Type: Very Light. Approx. % Sugar: 10.
For 9-Pt Load: 6-1/2 Cups Water, 3/4 Cups Sugar.
For 7-Qt Load: 10-1/2 Cups Water, 1-1/4 Cups Sugar.
(Approximates natural sugar levels in most fruits and adds the fewest
calories.)

Syrup Type: Light. Approx. % Sugar: 20.
For 9-Pt Load: 5-3/4 Cups Water, 1-1/2 Cups Sugar.
For 7-Qt Load: 9 Cups Water, 2-1/4 Cups Sugar.
(Very sweet fruit. Try a small amount the first time to see if your
family likes it.)

Syrup Type: Medium. Approx. % Sugar: 30.
For 9-Pt Load: 5-1/4 Cups Water, 2-1/4 Cups Sugar.
For 7-Qt Load: 8-1/4 Cups Water, 3-3/4 Cups Sugar.
(Sweet apples, sweet cherries, berries, grapes.)

Syrup Type: Heavy. Approx % Sugar: 40.
For 9-Pt Load: 5 Cups Water, 3-1/4 Cups Sugar.
For 7-Qt Load: 7-3/4 Cups Water, 5-1/4 Cups Sugar.
(Tart apples, apricots, sour cherries, gooseberries, nectarines,
peaches, pears, plums.)

Syrup Type: Very Heavy. Approx % Sugar: 50.
For 9-Pt Load: 4-1/4 Cups Water, 4-1/4 Cups Sugar
For 7-Qt Load: 6-1/2 Cups Water, 6-3/4 Cups Sugar
Very sour fruit. Try a small amount the first time to see if your family
likes it.

NOTES:

9-Pt Load values are also adequate for a 4-quart load.

Many fruits that are typically packed in heavy syrup are excellent and
tasteful products when packed in lighter syrups. It is recommended that
lighter syrups be tried, since they contain fewer calories from added
sugar

1 cup of low fat milk
2-3 tablespoons non-fat dry milk
1-2 teaspoons sugar
4 or 5 ice cubes
Hershey’s Chocolate syrup, to taste (I think I used 2 tablespoons or so)
Put all ingredients in blender. Blend until ice is incorporated. The
ice and dry milk help give this shake a thick creaminess associated with
fattening shakes. Make sure your blender is heavy duty enough to deal
with whole ice cubes. If not use crushed ice.
