Yeast belyashi made with water
Description
Belyashi stay juicy and tender even the next day — such a successful dough! A crispy golden crust on the outside, soft and airy inside, and what an aroma! Impossible to resist! I highly recommend trying to make them — the recipe is simple; the main thing is not to rush, and you’ll definitely succeed! You can shape them any way you like — I make mine with a hole in the middle. Use spices to taste, and the same goes for the filling — you don’t have to stick to meat only. The bake is ready. Serve at the table.
