Dumplings with beef. Dumplings with boiled meat

Dumplings and dumplings are widespread in Russian cuisine. The dishes are somewhat similar and are close relatives, but there is still a difference between dumplings and dumplings. Many people think that the main difference is that dumplings are always prepared with meat, while dumplings use a different filling, namely in the form of cottage cheese, potatoes, berries, cabbage. But I must say that dumplings can also be with meat. Only now, unlike dumplings, they never use raw meat. This is one of the main differences, but far from the only one.

It is believed that dumplings are a dish traditionally prepared by Ukrainians, and dumplings are an invention of Russians. This is a delusion, since their roots are oriental. And I must say that dumplings came to Russia from Asia, and dumplings came to Ukraine from a country like Turkey.

What should be the dough for dumplings and dumplings - the difference

For dumplings, the dough is always fresh. But for dumplings, the dough can be yeast. It is often prepared with kefir. The proportions of minced meat and dough are also different. In dumplings, this is a one-to-one combination. There is always more filling in dumplings than dough. And they try to make the dough itself much tighter, it should be thinner than on dumplings. As you know, dumplings it contains flour, as well as water and eggs, and dough for dumplings can be prepared in milk, or kefir, as well as yogurt.

The dumplings are small enough. And dumplings sometimes reach very impressive sizes and can approach the pies. The size of dumplings does not exceed 2-3 cm. The length of dumplings can reach 8 cm and more. There are regions where large dumplings have been prepared for a long time. And 1-2 is enough for even an adult to be full. The difference is also in the form. Dumplings are traditionally prepared in the shape of a crescent. A pigtail can be made at their ends for aesthetic appeal. Dumplings, unlike dumplings, are round in shape, they look like an ear.

Regardless of whether the dough is kneaded on dumplings, or on dumplings, it should be cooked steep, the minced meat is also well mixed. A little oil is sometimes added to the dough to give elasticity. During kneading, cooks often stretch the dough, then fold it to allow the important gluten to develop. Then the dough rests under the towel. As a result, it turns out soft dough and elastic. It lags behind the hands.

Dumplings with meat and dumplings - the difference in cooking

We have already said that people who think that dumplings are cooked with meat, and dumplings with any filling except meat, are wrong. As dumplings can be made with cottage cheese and cabbage, so dumplings are molded with meat using boiled meat. It is twisted, added to the minced meat fried onion as well as sometimes bacon. In some cases, after boiling, the dumplings are also fried with onions in oil or lard. In dumplings, minced meat is only raw. And I must say that dumplings are more varied in fillings. Considering what is the difference between dumplings and dumplings, one cannot but emphasize some difference in the serving of the dish.

Dumplings always act as the main dish. Dumplings give more variation. They can be served in a special broth as a variant of the soup. Chopped fresh parsley is added to the broth. Traditionally, vinegar is served as sauces for dumplings, or butter... Although today many restaurants offer a fairly wide variety of sauces. Salty dumplings are served with sour cream, and sweet ones are often served not only with sour cream, but also with honey, jam and other sauces. Salted dumplings are often fried with lard and onions.

It must be added that both dishes are combined with delicious taste. And you should definitely indulge yourself with such dishes. They have doubles all over the world. These are ravioli, manti, and khinkali. They are always boiled in water and the nationality of all these dishes has long since been erased. Today, dumplings, dumplings, and khinkali are dishes that are loved in Russia. They are served in restaurants with traditional Russian cuisine, and they are also eaten by students and very busy people who want to make a quick dinner.

Dumplings can perfectly diversify the menu, as they are sweet, salty, and also sour. If potato filling is chosen, then black pepper and fried onions are added to it for piquancy. When berries and their juice are used as a filling, starch is added to the filling itself so that it does not leak out. Dumplings and any dumplings are boiled in a wide saucepan. Many experienced housewives use their own recipes, which have been tested over the years. Such recipes are passed down from generation to generation. In fact, there are a great many dough recipes.

The best chefs in our restaurant prepare delicious venison dumplings. They have a unique taste and are prepared according to recipes from the North. The taste of our dishes will amaze you. All dishes in the Altai restaurant are prepared in the spirit of the best Russian traditions. Come, we are always tasty and sincere.

I don't really like it when authors culinary recipes get carried away with puns and begins - "pizza without cheese" / "lean pizza", etc. The main ingredient in this dish is cheese. And without it, it's anything - a pie, casserole, but not pizza.

So I thought that dumplings with meat are also altered dumplings. But it turned out that everything is not at all like that! 😀

They may differ in shape, but not necessarily - in some localities and dumplings, and dumplings with any filling are molded in exactly the same way.

The main difference is that it is used in dumplings raw minced meat, and in dumplings - meat boiled until fully cooked! 😀 It can be anything. Traditionally, this is beef or pork, or a combination of both.

But vegetables can be added to the most different. I took a lot of onions and a little carrots. Onions - because I love them very much. Carrots - for beauty 😉

The result is dumplings with amazing taste! 😀 I just fell in love with them, so I recommend cooking to you too! 😉

Ingredients for making dumplings:

For the test:

  • wheat flour, premium grade - 1 kg
  • filtered water - 375 ml
  • salt - 2 tsp

For filling:

  • beef tenderloin - 900 g
  • onions - 3 pcs.
  • carrots - 1 pc.
  • butter - 120 g
  • sunflower oil - 2 tablespoons
  • a mixture of peppers - 0.5 tsp
  • salt - 1 tsp

For cooking meat and dumplings:

  • allspice
  • Bay leaf

And I cooked these delicious dumplings as follows:

Preparation of the filling:

I started with the filling. A loin of beef is dipped in boiling water. Reduced the heat to a minimum, put in 3 allspice peas and cooked for about 2 hours. 5-10 minutes before turning off, I added salt and a couple of bay leaves.

The finished beef was allowed to cool in the broth - so it will be softer.

While the meat was boiling, I prepared the rest of the ingredients for the filling. I cut the onion and sent it to a frying pan preheated with sunflower oil.

Sautéed with salt and pepper mixture.

Peeled carrots, finely grated. I laid it out to the onion.

Stirred and fried together until tender.

The cooled beef was first cut into plates.

And then in cubes. I put it in a blender.

Grind at maximum speed (in several steps).

Combined beef with onions and carrots. Mixed thoroughly. The filling is ready!

Kneading the dough:

To prepare the dough, I sifted flour.

Diluted salt in water and stirred until completely dissolved.

I poured salt water into the flour.

I kneaded the dough.

Put the dough on a flat surface (cutting board) and knead for 10 minutes. As a result, the dough is firm and elastic. I put it in a food bag and let it "rest" for about 20 minutes.

Modeling of dumplings:

I cut off a part from the dough.

She rolled it into a layer. Its thickness can be chosen at your discretion - after all, someone loves thicker, and someone thinner. I keep the golden mean;)

I cut out circles with a glass of spicy cream.

I sent the prepared filling to them. I put a small piece of butter on top. This is not necessary, but it tastes better - the dumplings will not be dry inside.

I made the tucks of the traditional shape, completely hiding the filling.

Boiling dumplings:

She froze some of the dumplings, and immediately boiled some of them - put them in boiled salted water and cooked them with allspice peas and bay leaves after surfacing for 5-6 minutes.

She immediately laid out the finished dumplings on plates - they do not need to stay in the broth for a long time.

You can serve with broth, or without it. I love it with butter and apple cider (and now with raspberry) vinegar! And you can also with sour cream ...

The dumplings are very tasty! Try it;) I'm sure you won't regret it!

After igniting them, decompose the next batch of dumplings. Repeat culinary process until all the workpieces are finished.

Serve crispy dumplings with hot sauce together with cracklings, not forgetting about cool drinks. As for mushrooms, it can be not only champignons, but also forest "brothers": chanterelles, honey agarics or olives.

  11. Put a teaspoon with a heap of minced meat in the middle and pinch the edges. Place the dumplings on a floured board.
  12. We put water to boil, preferably in a wide saucepan. The volume of water should be 3 times the weight of the dumplings.
