Step 1
1. Ossetian pie is made from classic yeast dough. If you don't have time to prepare the dough yourself, you can buy ready-made dough. I usually make a no-yeast starter dough: I dissolve yeast in warm water, add a pinch of salt and sugar, then add flour and knead the dough.

5. Shape the pie into a round flatbread, leaving a small "hole" in the center. This allows steam to escape and prevents the dough from cracking during baking. Place the cheese pie into a preheated oven and bake at 180°C (356°F) for 20–25 minutes.

6. Any Ossetian pie should not be overbaked, otherwise it won't be soft. The pie with Adyghe cheese can be served hot or even cold.
