ЖАВ как варить пельмени

Ingredients

• 500 g Pelmeni (frozen) (store‑bought frozen dumplings, no need to thaw)
• 2 L Water (cold tap water)
• 1 tsp Salt (kosher or table salt)
• 1 tsp Vegetable Oil (neutral oil such as canola or sunflower)
• 1 tbsp Butter (melted, optional for serving)

Instructions

1. Heat water to 60‑70°C

   Fill the large pot with 2 L of cold water and place it on the stove over medium heat. Heat until small bubbles appear on the bottom (about 60‑70 °C).

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: 60-70°C

2. Season the water

   Add 1 tsp salt and 1 tsp vegetable oil to the warm water and stir gently.

   Time: PT1M

   Temperature: 60-70°C

3. Add the pelmeni

   Gently lower the frozen pelmeni into the pot using the ladle, spreading them out so they don’t touch.

   Time: PT1M

   Temperature: 60-70°C

4. First cold‑water shock

   When the water returns to a rolling boil, pour in ½ cup cold water, stir, and wait for the water to come back to a boil.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: 100°C

5. Second cold‑water shock

   Repeat the cold‑water addition: add another ½ cup cold water, stir, and bring back to a boil.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: 100°C

6. Third cold‑water shock

   Add the final ½ cup cold water, stir, and let the pot reach a rolling boil once more.

   Time: PT2M

   Temperature: 100°C

7. Test for doneness

   Remove one pelmeni with the ladle, let it cool briefly, then cut it open. The filling should be hot and the dough firm yet tender.

   Time: PT3M

8. Drain and serve

   Using the colander, drain the pelmeni and transfer to a serving bowl. Drizzle with melted butter if desired and serve hot with broth or sour cream.

   Time: PT2M
