4 cups flour 1 ¾ cups warm water or milk 1 Tbs. salt 2 tsp dry yeast or .6-.7 oz fresh yeast 2 tsp sugar

Mix-ins: peanut butter jam/jelly cheese marinara sauce, with or without cheese, minced pepperoni, etc poppy seeds and lemon zest dill weed and grated carrot any kind of herbs, edible flowers tiny bits of caramel cheese with minced vegetables like peppers, garlic, etc honey cinnamon and sugar dried fruit Use your imagination!

Combine the yeast with the sugar in warm water/milk. Stir in the flour one cup at a time, adding in the salt with the last cup of flour. Knead so that it's smooth and elastic with some resistance.

Coat bowl and dough in oil or water. Place dough in the bowl and cover with plastic wrap sealed around the edges, but large and loose over the top so it doesn't smash the risen dough. Let rise for 1 hour, or until doubled, in a warm place.

Divide dough into a lot of small portions. Add a different mix-in into each piece, adding flour if necessary to anything that is too wet. Some fillings can be kneaded into the dough. For some fillings, roll the piece of dough flat, put on the filling, and roll it into a log with the filling spiraled inside. Others can be made into little filled dumplings. Coat the outside of the pieces with water so they will adhere together. Put the pieces of dough all together in a greased bread pan, coat the top with oil, cover loosely with plastic wrap, and let rise again for another 30 minutes or so, until it is about an inch over the top of the pan.

Spray water into the oven or place a small pan with water inside. Put the bread pan into the oven, then start pre-heating to 350° F. Bake for 60-70 minutes until it's a dark golden brown on top and the interior measures to 190°-200° F.

¾ cup grated carrot 1 cup hot water 2 Tbsp brown sugar 2 Tbsp olive oil ¾ tsp salt 2 tsp dry yeast or .6 oz fresh yeast 1 Tbsp dried dill weed 3-3 ½ cups flour

Stir together the carrot, water, brown sugar, olive oil, and salt until the sugar is dissolved. If the water gets cold (from using cold carrots), pour some water out and reheat it.

Stir in the yeast, dill, and one cup of flour. Stir completely before adding another cup of flour, then stir that in completely before adding the third. At this point you will have to knead the dough, adding more flour if necessary. Knead until the dough is smooth around the bits of carrot. Then coat the inside of a large bowl and the dough in a small amount of oil. Place dough in bowl, cover the top, and let rise until it is doubled in size, about 1 hour.

Knead the dough lightly, then divide it into 12 even balls. Place them on parchment paper on a baking sheet. Brush olive oil and sprinkle coarse salt onto the tops of each roll. Cover them and let them rise until doubled again, about 40 minutes.

Place the pan in the oven along with a small dish of water. Set the oven to 375° F and bake, including preheat time, for 25-30 minutes, until they are golden brown on top and bottom.

Crust: 2 cups semola flour ½ tsp salt ½ tsp dried rosemary ½ tsp dried dill weed ¾ cup butter ½ cup cold water

Filling: ½ lb ground pork 1/3 lb ground chicken 1/3 lb ground lamb 1 cup chopped onion 1 ½ cup grated turnip ½ tsp crushed garlic ½ tsp salt ¼ tsp celery seed ¼ tsp ground clove 1/8 tsp ground cinnamon 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg

For the crust: Stir together the semola flour, salt, rosemary, and dill weed. Cut the butter into small chunks, then cut it into the flour mixture until the mixture becomes a crumbly paste. Drizzle and stir in the water. Press it together to form a dough, then divide into 2 balls. Press each ball into a thick disk, wrap them in plastic wrap, and put in the fridge to chill.

Combine all the filling ingredients in a large pot over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the meat is cooked, then remove from heat.

Bring out the crust dough. Lay out a large sheet of plastic wrap, put one unwrapped disk of dough on it, then cover with another sheet of plastic wrap. Roll out the dough to a thin, large circle, about 15” in diameter. Remove the top layer of plastic wrap, and turn the sheet of dough in to a 9” pie tin. Press the dough down into the corners.

Roll out the second disk of dough in the same manner, but keep it sandwiched between the plastic wrap. Put them back in the fridge to chill.

Preheat oven to 400° F.

When the filling has cooled enough to handle, bring out the pie crust and spoon the filling inside. Use a slotted spoon to avoid putting the cooking liquid into the pie. Place the second sheet of dough on top. Trim around the sides of the tin, press the top and bottom crusts together around the edges. Cut slashes in the top crust. Use any leftover dough to make small decorations.

Bake for 45 minutes, until the crust is golden brown.

Crust: 1 cup flour 1 tsp dried ground tomato ½ tsp dill weed 6 Tbsp butter ½ tsp salt ¼ cup water

Filling: 5 eggs 1 ¼ cup milk 1 ½ cups diced onion 1 Tbsp oil ¾ cup cheese, shredded or cubed small 1 tsp black pepper

Preheat oven to 350° F.

Put the onion and oil in a small pan over medium-low heat. Cover and let cook until they are translucent.

Stir together the flour and spices for the crust. Cut in the butter until there are no more large chunks. Dissolve the salt in the water and stir into the flour mixture until it forms a dough. Press the dough onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9” square or circular baking pan. (Or you can roll the crust out on a floured surface.) Chill until needed.

Whisk together the eggs, milk, and pepper until it is completely mixed, then stir in the cheese.

Spread the onions in the bottom of the crust. Pour in the egg mixture.

Bake for 35-40 minutes until top and crust are lightly browned.
