Mineral water dough for dumplings

Soft, plastic and manageable dough for dumplings! For the sake of interest, I decided to try to make dough for dumplings, using carbonated mineral water instead of the usual ordinary water. The dough turned out to be soft, plastic, which is necessary for modeling dumplings, but in principle, just like on ordinary water.

    Sift wheat flour into a deep bowl. We make a recess in the center.

    Then spread the dough blank on the floured work surface, knead the dough with your hands until it becomes elastic and smooth. Flour may still be required (the density and quality of flour varies from different manufacturers), pour it a little, continue to knead the dough until it stops sticking to your hands.

    Step 7.

    Roll the dough into a ball, wrap it in plastic wrap and put it in the refrigerator for half an hour. In the meantime, you can prepare the filling for the dumplings and proceed to their modeling. Dumplings and manti can also be prepared from such dough. Enjoy your meal!

In some families, despite the fact that now there is an abundance of ready-made semi-finished products in stores, including ready-made dumplings for every taste, the tradition of cooking homemade dumplings has been preserved. Our family is no exception, sometimes we also make dumplings according to the mood of the whole family. The main thing in this case is high-quality meat and well-cooked dough. Usually the dough was made in cold water with the addition of vegetable oil and, in principle, I was always satisfied with the result. But after hearing some laudatory reviews about the test on mineral water, I decided to try it. I didn't notice much difference either in the cooking process or in the finished dough, the dough turned out to be obedient in operation, but I think it's more due to keeping in the refrigerator.
