Vareniki with Adyghe Cheese

Vareniki (Ukrainian dumplings) with an unusual filling — wonderfully tasty and tender! Give them a try! If you haven't had vareniki filled with Adyghe cheese (a mild, fresh brined cheese, similar to a young feta or paneer), you really should make a batch. They're delicious — and nourishing and good for you, too.

    1. Sift the flour into a wide, deep bowl. 2. Stir the salt into the flour. 3. Crack in the eggs and stir into the flour. 4. Gradually add the water as you knead the dough. You may need a little less or a little more. The dough should stop sticking to your hands and become soft, elastic, and smooth. 5. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and chill it in the refrigerator for now. 6. Put the Adyghe cheese in a bowl and mash it with a fork. Add salt if needed — I skip this, since the cheese is salty enough for my taste. 7. Finely chop half of the herbs, add them to the cheese, and mix. 8. Divide the dough into 4 portions. 9. Roll the first one into a sheet and cut out rounds. Place filling on each, then press the edges together to form a varenyk. 10. Repeat with the remaining dough. 11. Drop the vareniki into boiling salted water and cook until they're done. 12. Transfer the vareniki to serving plates and brush with butter. Serve them hot with fresh herbs and pieces of cheese. Enjoy!
