Step cooking

1. Cut 300 g of margarine into small pieces, put them in a saucepan and send to the stove to completely melt over low heat. Stir constantly, and do not bring to a boil. Optionally, instead of margarine, you can take butter. Also boil approximately 180 ml of water in advance and let it cool completely.
   
2. Pour the melted margarine into a deep bowl. Pour 180 ml of cold boiled water into it. In a bowl, beat one egg with a fork and pour it into a bowl. Add about a teaspoon of baking powder to all ingredients and mix well until smooth.
   
   Instead of baking powder, you can use 0.5 tsp. soda topped in a tablespoon of vinegar. A small foam will appear, but after mixing it will disappear. If you wish, you can add a pinch of salt or a little sugar if you plan to make the pastries sweet.
3. Then, using a sieve, gradually sift about 500-550 g of flour into a bowl and mix well with a spoon in a circular motion. When the dough becomes thicker, continue to knead it with your hands until it stops sticking to your hands and becomes a uniform smooth lump. If necessary, add some more flour.
   
4. Then cover the bowl with a lid or plate and refrigerate for about 40-45 minutes. If you accidentally overexposed the dough in the refrigerator and it has cooled down, it can be hard to roll out. In this case, let it lie for about 7-8 minutes at room temperature. After this time, the yeast-free fresh dough is ready for use.
   

Unleavened dough without yeast is good for making fried and baked pies, pies, pizza and other rich treats. It is also good to cook dumplings and dumplings from such a test.

When cooked, the dough remains thin and slightly crispy. In addition to water, yeast-free dough can be prepared with milk, sour cream and kefir. Moreover, the greater the fat content of these ingredients, the more nutritious and magnificent the finished baking is obtained.
