Preparation of the dough

According to our recipe, it should be finely ground and of the highest grade. This ingredient is carefully sifted through a sieve into a bowl. This must be done so that the flour is free of lumps and small debris, and also enriched with oxygen. As a result, it will be easier for you to knead the dough and at the same time its quality will improve significantly. Next, take the eggs and beat them into the pan. Then add salt and sugar with a spoon. Then start whisking all these ingredients with a hand whisk. It is important to get a homogeneous mass and make sure that the salt and sugar are well dissolved. As soon as this is achieved, begin to gradually pour the cooled kefir into the pan, while continuing to whisk the mixture with a whisk. Now, according to our recipe, it's time to add soda. But don't rush to pour it into the pan right away, first extinguish it with vinegar. To do this, take a teaspoon, pour the required amount of soda into it and drip vinegar on top. Then, using a match, stir the bubbling mixture. This will allow the soda to be thoroughly saturated with vinegar. After that, you can add these ingredients to the dough. Be sure to mix all the ingredients in the pan with a whisk thoroughly. As soon as you manage to make the mixture uniform, proceed to adding starch. Our recipe calls for pouring it into the dough in small portions. The ideal option would be to add starch one tablespoon at a time. It is important to thoroughly stir the mixture with a whisk after pouring each portion, doing everything possible to prevent lumps from forming in it. It should be noted that our recipe does not call for the use of flour; starch is used instead. Therefore, there is no need to add such an ingredient to the dough. As soon as all the starch is poured into the pan, add a tablespoon of vegetable oil. After this, mix the dough thoroughly to obtain a uniform consistency.
