Why dough fails

Who doesn't love pies, buns, cookies, delicious dumplings, pancakes, chebureks, and khinkali, especially if they are made at home with good ingredients? The main one is the dough itself, on which the taste of the dish completely depends, but often it turns out to be unsuccessful, heavy, clogged, and hard.

That's why FoodOboz editorial team has compiled a list of reasons that can completely ruin the dough, and thus the dish in general.

Don't spare the butter for the dough
