Most home recipes call for boiling water, but this is not the only way to achieve the perfect cake. More and more people choose a solution that gives a much better effect, without much effort.
Ears falling apart while cooking is one of the most common kitchen problems during the holiday season. Sometimes it’s the culprit too hard dough, lack of flexibility or over-drying already at the gluing stage. Although hot water does make rolling easier, once cooked the dough often loses its softness and quickly becomes rubbery.

Instead of water, it is worth reaching for hot milk with butter. This is a small change that dramatically improves the structure of the dough. Milk gently softens the flour and gives it a subtle flavor, and butter makes the dough silky and elastic. This makes them easier to roll out and the edges stick together perfectly.
The dough prepared on the basis of milk and butter does not tear when kneaded and does not stick to the countertop. Most importantly, it retains its compact structure during cooking. The ears don’t split, they don’t fall apart i they remain soft after removing from the potnot hard or dry.
This method will also work great if you prepare the dumplings in advance. After defrosting, they retain their great consistency and tasteas if they were made fresh. This is a huge advantage before Christmas Eve, when every time saving is worth its weight in gold.
