Placindas - 5 cooking recipes

Flatbreads with sweet fruits go wonderfully with milk soups. Every Moldovan woman has her own twist in making pies. Recipes for placintas with cheese made from fresh sheep's milk are especially delicious. Lightly salted cheese is mixed with onions, thyme and dill, and the national pie is generously stuffed. Moldovans do not have the custom of drinking tea with sweet pastries, so they use any products for minced meat: eggs, herbs, nuts, cottage cheese, vegetables. Due to the fact that the elastic unleavened dough is rolled out into a thin layer, the crust is very crispy.

The way of wrapping the pie is also interesting. Place the filling in the middle of a thin square layer. Wrap the dough in an envelope, pulling at the corners. Then the sharp edges are pulled towards the center again to form a hexagon. Another secret to preparing ruddy placintas is the correct choice of frying temperature. First, heat the frying pan with oil very hot, and then place the cakes on it and reduce the intensity of the flame. By frying on each side for 5 minutes, you will get perfect golden placintas. Bon appetit!
