Ingredients

The following ingredients have 40 Servings
  • 4 cup flour
  • 1 1/4 cup lukewarm water
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 2/3 tbsp yeast
  • 3 cup fresh blueberries
  • 1 cup sugar

Instruction

  • Combine together flour, yeast, salt and 1/4 cup of sugar.
  • In small portions add in water. Knead the dough until it's smooth. Cover the dough and let it rise for about an hour.
  • Divide the dough into equal pieces. If you continue dividing each pierce into halves, they should come out pretty even. Cover the dough with a towel while you are working on each piece.
  • Either roll out each piece or stretch it out by hand. Place blueberries in the middle and cover with sugar, about 1/3 a teaspoon in each.
  • Fold it over and pinch to seal. Make sure all holes are sealed well. Leave them on a floured surface or make just one steaming batch at a time.
  • Bring a pot with water to a boil and place a steamer on the inside. Place vareniki on the steamer and cover it using the lid.
  • Let them steam for about 7 minutes. To make sure they are fully cooked, break one and confirm that the dough is puffy.
  • Once done, vareniki should feel light and puffy. It's best to serve them on the first day, although they can be reheated later.
