Yeast Hamentaschen Preparation
From: Pat Crosby <patsplace@worldnet.att.net> Date: Fri, 16 Aug 1996 14:26:01 +0000 The first is from Love and Knishes – An Irrepressible Guide to Jewish Cooking by Sara Kasden – 1956 Soften yeast in lukewarm water. Add salt, sugar, and shortening to water or potato water. Add 2 cups flour; beat thoroughly. Add yeast and eggs, mixing well. Add the remaining flour to make a soft dough. Knead on a lightly floured board until shiny. Place in a lightly greased bowl, cover with a tea towel, and let stand in a warm place until the dough has doubled in bulk. Punch down the dough and turn it over. Cover with a tea towel. Chill in the refrigerator overnight. Divide the dough into balls the size of a small apple. Roll out to rounds 1/4 inch thick. Place a tablespon of filling in the center of each round. Bring three sides of the circle together at the center to form a triangle. Pinch edges together to form a slight ridge. Let stand at room temperature until doubled in bulk. Brush tops with an egg yolk diluted with 1 tablespoon water. Place very far apart on greased baking tins and bake at 350F until golden brown (about 35 minutes). Makes 15 very large Hamentaschen. JEWISH-FOOD digest V96 #002 From the Jewish Food recipe list.
