Airy and aromatic pastries can decorate and improve any tea party.

But at the same time, many people want the pies to remain soft and fresh for as long as possible.

Experienced cooks know that such a wish can be fulfilled very easily.

To do this, you need to add one additional component to the dough.

We are talking about potato or corn starch. This ingredient will prevent the pies from getting stale. As a result, they will remain soft long after cooling.

In this case, the starch should not just be added to the preparation, but passed through a sieve together with wheat flour.

Otherwise, you can use the classic recipe, but before cooking, you need to take all the ingredients out of the refrigerator so that they are at room temperature.

Housewives note that this method of preparation with the addition of starch is suitable for both fried and oven-baked pies.
