Let’s bake some Shavuot Kreplach 🧀

Method 📖

To make the dough:

1. To make the dough, weigh the flour into a large mixing bowl.

2. Crack and check the egg and add it to the flour.

3. Add the lukewarm water slowly until you have a soft dough mixture.

4. Roll out the dough onto a floured surface and then cut into squares.

To make the filling:

1. In a medium mixing bowl, add the filling ingredients and mix.

2. Now spoon a small amount of the mixture into the squares of dough.

3. Fold over and press together to form a little “purse”.

4. In the meantime, boil a saucepan of water.

5. Once you have made all of your kreplach, drop two at a time into the boiling water.

6. They will be ready when they float to the top.

7. Remove with a spoon and add the next two kreplach.
