What to cook the dough on so that the pies do not get stale for a long time: an original idea
To keep the pies soft and fresh for a long time, you need to make a special dough based on mashed potatoes. Potatoes make the flour product much more tender and fluffy, and the dough itself is quite versatile. It is suitable for both sweet and savory pastries.
The recipe for lean cherry pies with potato dough was shared by food blogger Kateryna Kudliak (recepty_przepisy) on her Instagram page.
