Chum salmon stuffed with cottage cheese. Step-by-step recipe with photos. Dough without layering

I still remember how the birds sang there... I remember the azan that came from the minarets of the mosque, onto which the windows of my grandmother’s house overlooked... In the summer we went to the heart of our Karabakh, Shusha. Clean mountain air, unique nature, wonderful smiling faces of Shushi residents, people who amazingly combined intelligence, provincial simplicity and originality... In the evenings, relatives and neighbors gathered on my grandmother’s veranda... it was fun... they played until midnight Lotto, dominoes, backgammon... samovar teas, delicious grandma's pastries... it smelled of freshness, comfort and peace...
And then there was a war... The looters took everything out of the house... I must say that my grandparents were not poor people... antique carpets, silverware, furniture... The occupiers moved that house, garden, veranda, comfort with a tank, peace is everything... And my grandmother (may the Almighty grant her Paradise) hoped to the last that someday she would return to her home and at least be buried on her own land... But this was not destined to happen...
May the Almighty punish the guilty and put everything in its place! Amen!

The taste of this kyata is the taste of my childhood. This recipe is my grandmother's recipe. They say that with my culinary skills I look like my late grandmother. And this really flatters me. As we say, “she had delicious hands...”


First we make the dough. To do this, mix 1 tbsp. flour, a packet of dry yeast (10g) and 1 tbsp. warm milk, 1 tbsp. l. granulated sugar and a pinch of salt. We put it in a warm place for 15 minutes to rise.

Flour should be added gradually, by eye, while rubbing the mass into crumbs. Place the filling in the refrigerator for about 45 minutes.

Divide the dough into 5 parts. Roll 5 balls. On a floured surface, roll each ball into a layer, which we grease with melted butter.


We take the filling out of the refrigerator and divide it into 5 parts by eye. We lay out and distribute one part onto the rolled out and oiled layer.

We gather the edges in the middle, pinch them, turn them over onto a floured surface, carefully roll them out with a rolling pin, straighten the edges, and give them either a round or square shape. We grease the top with yolk, apply a pattern with a fork, prick the dough with a fork so that the air comes out and put it in an oven preheated to 160 degrees.
I bake on the lower mode for 20-25 minutes, on the upper mode for 10 minutes. And you, of course, rely on your oven.

KYATA BAKINSKAYA
Kyata is an international delicacy of the East. Different peoples of the Caucasus prepare it in different ways; each nation has its own recipe and its own name for this simple-looking, but very tasty and high-calorie baked dish. The main idea of ​​any kyat is the same composition of products, dough and filling, which include flour, butter and sugar. During baking, the dough becomes soft and the filling becomes crispy, and together they create a very original, not cloyingly sweet taste of an extraordinary cookie.
In different regions of Azerbaijan, kyat recipes also differ from each other. There are kyatas from Nakhichevan, Karabakh, Baku and others.
The most common and simplest yeast-free recipe is the recipe for Baku kyata, the roots of which, according to some sources, go far to the Irivan Khanate.

Ingredients for the dough:
3 cups flour
225 g (8 oz) cold butter
1 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 egg (white for dough, yolk for greasing)

1 pinch of salt

Filling ingredients:

1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup flour
110 g (4 oz) oil
1 packet of vanilla sugar (1 tbsp)

Preparation:
Prepare the dough.
Pour flour onto a work surface. Grate the butter through a grater and lightly mix with flour.
In a separate bowl, mix sour cream with soda and salt, taking into account that soda dissolved in sour cream will almost double its size.

Make a well in the flour mixed with butter and pour in the sour cream mixture, egg whites and vanillin.

Chop all ingredients with a knife until smooth.

Use your hands to knead the dough, but do not knead.
Divide the dough into two parts. Roll each part into a ball, roll in flour and, wrapping it in cling film, put it in the refrigerator for at least an hour.

Prepare the filling.
Grate strong cold butter and mix with granulated sugar, flour and vanilla sugar.

Prepare Kyata.
Sprinkle the work surface with flour to prevent the dough from sticking. Roll out one half of the dough with a thick rolling pin into a layer 3-5 mm thick. If the dough is too strong, then keep it at room temperature for 5-10 minutes. Pour half of the filling onto the rolled out dough layer and spread evenly over the entire surface.

Roll the dough into a tight log. Lightly press the roll on top with your hands or a rolling pin so that it is not round.
Brush the roll with yolk mixed with ½ teaspoon of vegetable oil and ½ teaspoon of saffron tincture. Oil is added for shine, saffron for color.
Cut the roll diagonally with a curly knife into uniform pieces 5 cm wide.
Place the pieces of kyat on a baking sheet at a distance of 4-5 cm from each other. It is not necessary to grease the baking sheet with oil, since the dough itself is oily and greasy (cover it with tracing paper if the baking sheet is not Teflon-coated).
