Hickory Smoked Vinasoy.

Makes 10 ounces. (The size of the bottle I use.)

1/4 cup soy sauce. I’ve used Kikkoman and Tamari. Either one.
1 cup apple cider vinegar. (Other vinegars OK. *Really* cheap balsamic
didn’t work well, though. Really good balsamic doesn’t need soy or smoke.)
1 tsp liquid smoke.

That’s it. The soy and vinegar smooth each other’s rough edges, and the
liquid smoke offers a good BBQ’ish flavor. When I’m using nutritional
yeast, I’ll pour a little vinasoy onto the yeast. Seems to work out well.

Title: Pyrizhky (Baked Turnovers)
Categories: Desserts, Christmas, Russian
Servings: 10

2 1/2 c Unbleached All-Purpose Flour
1/4 lb Butter; 1 Stick
1/2 c Sour Cream
3 lg Egg Yolks
1/2 ts Salt
1 lg Egg White; Beaten With A
-Little Water For Glazing
1/2 c Coarse Sugar Crystals;
-(Optional)

Combine the flour and cold butter in a processor or cut the butter with a
pastry cutter into coarse crumbs. Add the egg yolks, salt, and cream and
process or knead lightly until the dough forms a ball. Cut in half,
wrapping each have in plastic wrap, refigerate for at least 2 hours or
overnight. Roll out half the dough on a lightly floured work surface, to
about 1/4-inch thickness. Cut into rounds with a 3-inch cutter or wine
glass. Place a spoonful of the filling on one side of each round, fold
the top over, brush with a little of the egg glaze and seal with a fork or
pastry cutter for a fancy edge. Place each turnover on a lightly greased
or non-stick baking sheet and brush with the glaze then sprinkle with the
sugar crystals. Bake in a preheated 375 Degree F. oven for about 20
minutes. Cool on wire racks.

NOTE:

This is a short dough so a non-stick baking sheet would be the best. If
it is not available, brush as little grease on the sheet as possible using
a pastry brush or new paint brush.
