Khachapuri dough on kefir

Prepare all the ingredients according to the list and start cooking. To begin with, combine kefir and sour cream in a deep bowl. Sour cream can be taken of any fat content, but it is better to choose at least 20%. Kefir is also suitable for any fat content, but it is better to choose not completely fat-free. Mix kefir and sour cream in a bowl until smooth.

Measure the soda, pour it into a mixture of kefir and sour cream, mix and leave for ten minutes. There will be an active reaction, and at this time we will melt the butter. It is convenient to do this in the microwave. It is even better to melt the butter in advance so that it has time to cool down. If it was not possible to do this in advance, then we cool the oil to room temperature and only then pour it into the kefir-sour cream mixture. Mix it up.

Add salt and granulated sugar, stir again. Do not forget to taste and, if necessary, add a little more salt or sugar.

Sift wheat flour into a separate bowl. Now you can start kneading the dough. Add flour to the kefir-sour cream mixture in small portions, stirring. Knead it until it stops sticking to your hands. Perhaps, depending on the quality and grade, a little less or a little more flour will be needed. No need to unnecessarily clog the dough with flour. It doesn't have to be cool like on dumplings - it should turn out soft and obedient.

We form a round bun from the dough, put it on the bottom of the bowl, and cover the container with a clean cotton or linen towel from above. We leave it in this form for fifteen to twenty minutes. When the time passes, the dough will be completely ready to cook khachapuri from it.

Culinary masterpieces! Delicious khachapuri!
