Wasteful potica - A plentiful nutmeg
The recipe is traditional Slovenian, here the housewives make this incentive when they have a holiday, celebrations, celebrations. It looks a bit complicated and like a lot of work with it, but it's not like that ... when you start baking dough after dough ... it is made quickly. Instead of rolling it into a roll ... it is baked in layers in a rectangular pan. The recipe was given to me by my husband's aunt who has been making it this way for about 10 years. It is called Generous because it is rich in a lot of ingredients and a huge protvan comes out that can feed the whole neighborhood hehehhe ..... otherwise generous it can be translated as "Wasteful" :) ..... "For Coolerica" ").
Preparation steps
- Usually the stimulus is cut as in picture no.1 but I cut the cubes for painting. First, preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Bake in a baking dish 40x24x6 cm, line with baking paper. I screwed up the thing and baked it in a baking sheet from the oven and it turned out low.
- Biscuit: Whisk the egg whites, add sugar, then egg yolk, oil, boiling water and add flour and baking powder. Pour the mixture onto a baking sheet and bake for about 10 minutes.
- While the biscuit is baking, prepare another dark biscuit, just like the first one, only add 2 tablespoons of dark cocoa. We can prepare both doughs the day before.
- Yeast dough: Dissolve the yeast with a little warm milk and sugar, let it rise. Melt the butter. Put the flour in a plastic bowl, make a hole in the middle. Add salt to the flour at the ends of the bowl and in the middle add grated lemon peel, sugar, rum, egg yolk and half the milk. Mix the middle with a spoon and add the risen yeast. dough.Leave to rise for 1 hour. In the meantime, prepare both fillings from cottage cheese (fresh lumpy cheese) and walnuts.
- The process of preparation and stacking: All the dough is baked in the same protvan (pan) because they must all be equal. First, bake a white biscuit on a baking paper in a preheated oven at 180 degrees, then bake a dark biscuit. (The dark biscuit shrinks a bit from the cocoa and is smaller). Roll out the dough into a rectangle that is bigger than the baking pan ... on three sides a little to be excess and on one longer side to be once again so much bigger.
- Place baking paper under the dough on a baking sheet, then transfer the dough to hang on all sides, spread it with half of the walnut filling.
- Place the white biscuit on top. Soak it by spraying with half of the rum topping.
- Spread all the cheese filling on the white biscuit.
- Place a dark biscuit on top of the cheese, and soak it with the other half of the rum topping.
- Coat the dark biscuit with the other half of the walnut filling.
- The remaining dough that hangs from all sides ... coat with beaten egg whites (that is, when baking, the upper crust does not separate from the fillings) and fold it as in the picture .... like a box, fold all the excess dough inwards on stuffing, if you have too much dough, cut it off, and cut off the largest side of the dough as in the picture and cover the whole pan ... like when you close the lid of the box. when baking. Coat the dough with a mixture of egg yolk and a little milk and let it stand for 30 minutes. Bake for 45-50 minutes at 180 degrees. Leave for 10 minutes in the pan to rest and then transfer the walnuts to a cloth and wrap the cloths to cool completely.
Serving
This kind of stimulus ... walnuts are also suitable for freezing, you cut certain pieces, fold them into aluminum foil and then into a bag that you tie tightly and when you take it out, it's the same as if you just baked it.
