Knish Crust
Serving Size :
6
Recipe Ingredients:
* 1 1/2 cups whole wheat flour -- sifted
* 2 tablespoons soy flour
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 1 egg
* 1/4 cup margarine or oil
* 6 tablespoons warm water
In a large bowl, combine the flours and salt. In a separate bowl beat the
egg, add the fat and water; then add to the flour mixture. Knead lightly
until the dough is no longer sticky. Form the dough into a ball and place it
in a greased bowl slightly larger that the ball of dough. Cover and set in a
warm place for 1 hour.
Put an old tablecloth on your kitchen table. Rub some flour into it. Divide
the dough in half. Roll out each half as thin as possible. Stretch and pull
carefully until the dough is as thin as tissue paper and you can see the
pattern of the tablecloth through it. If it should tear, patch it with a piece
from the edge and roll it in.
Place filling in a thick line across 1 end of each sheet of rolled out dough
about 4 inches from the edge nearest you. Bend this end over the filling.
Raise the tablecloth and let it roll away from you.
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. With the edge of your little finger, start
to cut the roll into 1-inch pieces. Use a knife to finish the cutting. Pull
the ends of the dough over the filling and pat it between your hands.
Line a cookie sheet. Place the knishes carefully on the prepared cookie sheet
about 1/2 inch apart. Bake for 45 minutes for until crisp. If you plan to
freeze them, bake 30 minutes and allow to cool.
