If you want this hearty dish to remain tasty, appetizing and not fall apart when cooked, you need to know some cooking tricks.

As experienced cooks note, only one additional component should be added to the dough.

We are talking about starch.

It is worth noting that such a product can even replace eggs when preparing the base for vareniki and pelmeni.

Another plus is that this method of cooking will save you during a diet, when you want to reduce the calorie content of your favorite dishes.

However, you don't need to take too much starch. Just three tablespoons per 500 g of sifted flour and 300 ml of water are enough.

Once the dough is ready, it needs time to rest.

Therefore, the preparation should be placed in the refrigerator for an hour.

After this, you can proceed to the next stage of preparing dumplings or vareniki.
