Kolachi
Preparation Time:
minutes
Ingredients
- 6 cups of flour
- 1 large FRESH yeast
- 1 tsp. of salt
- 1/2 pound of oleo (margarine)
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 cups of warm milk
- 3 eggs
- Besides the above you will need filling for the kolachi. Lekvar, poppy seed, apricot, and nut are four great choices.
Preparation
Scald milk and set aside to cool. Melt Oleo and set aside to cool. It is cool enough when you can test a drop of it on your wrist without burning yourself.
While waiting for the scalded milk and oleo to cool, shift DRY ingredients in a large bowl. Make like a crater in the center of the dry ingredients.
Dissolve yeast in the scalded milk. Pour into the crater along with the oleo. Break in the 3 eggs. Mix thoroughly.
Cover with a white towel or cloth. Set in a warm place away from drafts. Let rise until it is double in bulk, about 2 hours.
Remove dough to a floured board. Kneed the dough. Divide into six parts.
Let set and rise about 10 to 15 minutes.
Meanwhile break an egg into a cup. Beat well.
Roll each piece of dough out. Spread your filling. Bring ends in and roll up.
Pinch the ends and place each roll on a cookie sheet.
You can get three rolls to one sheet but don't put them to close together.
With a pastry brush, brush the beaten egg on the top of each roll. The egg will give the rolls a brown glazed color.
Bake at 375 degrees until the rolls are brown. I can't tell you the exact amount of time but, it's about 30 to 35 minutes I think.
