Everybody who just tasted, loves it. It's salty, crunchy outside, soft dough inside. Pogacsa is very popular in Hungary, many traditional versions exists (fresh cheese, pork crackling, cabbage, poppy seed etc.) Very good for snack, I can recommend it for children parties too.
Ingredients:
500g all purpose flour
250g cold butter
100 ml milk
4 tbsp sour cream
30g yeast
1 sugar
2 egg yolk
1 egg
2 tsp salt
hard cheese (ementaler)
1. Crumble the pieced butter with the flour, then mix the salt with it.
2. Add the sugar into the lukewarm milk, and mix it with the yeast. Let it come up a bit.
3. Then add the milk with the yeast to the flour, also add and mix with the flour the egg yolks and the sour cream. Knead the dough very well on a floured surface and form into ball. Add flour in case needed to keep from sticking to the board. Cover with dish cloth and rest it for 30 min.
4. Roll out the dough for about 1/2 inch and fold it. Fold left side to the middle, than right side overlay. Fold bottom half of the middle and overlay the top half on it.
5. Put it into the fridge on a floured tray, covered with a dish cloth (it will come bigger during the night). Morning you can scroll out, cut the biscuits with a small metal cutter and bake it.
6. Preheat oven to 180 °C (360 degrees F).
7. Brush tops with beaten eggs, and sprinkle with grated cheese.
8. Put them on a baking sheet, keep distance between the biscuits as they will grow during baking.
9. Bake till gold brown. If it's already cold, cover it until serving. Otherwise it will dry out quickly.
Tipps:
- In case you can't wait 8 hours for resting, follow the below instructions:
Roll out the dough thin and fold it. Sprinkle the top with flour and rest again on the surface covered for 20 min. Repeat the folding and resting one more time.
- You can freeze the dough or the baked biscuits in a plastic bag.
- You can use for toping cumin, or sesame-, pumpkin-, or poppy seed or those mixture.
