Subj : National Dairy Month - 3 To : All From : Dave Drum Date : Tue Jun 06 2023 04:59:44 MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06 Title: Poloni (Miniature Pasta Squares with Dairy Sauce) Categories: Asian, Pasta, Dairy, Sauces, Cheese Yield: 6 Servings MMMMM---------------------------PASTA-------------------------------- 2 c Flour 1 Egg, beaten 1/4 ts Salt 1/2 c Water MMMMM------------------------DAIRY SAUCE----------------------------- 1/2 c Cottage cheese 1/2 c Yoghurt 1/4 ts Salt 2 cl Garlic; pressed 1 ts Fresh mint; chopped 1 tb Fresh dill; chopped 4 (to 5 c) water; salted light Tish-Ah B'Av & Shavuoth are two holidays when dairy foods are preeminent & meat dishes are temporarily set aside. These pasta squares are covered w/a well-seasoned, rich dairy sauce. Poloni would also be welcome during hot summer days when cooking meat would increase the temperature in kitchen & eating it create a heaviness not conductive to comfort. Tish-Ah B'Av indicates that this fast day is celebrated on the ninth day of month of Av. This tragic holiday commemorates the destruction of First & Second Temples of Jerusalem. Mix flour, egg, & salt & add just enough water to prepare a dough firm enough to be handled. Dust w/flour to reach desirable consistency. Put dough ball into a plastic bag & let it rest at room temp for 1 hour. Cut dough into halves & roll each piece into a very thin pancake. (I do this w/my hand-cranked pasta machine.) Then cut pancakes into 1/2-inch squares. Set aside. Mix sauce ingredients together & set aside. Bring 4 to 5 cups of lightly salted water to a boil in a large pan, drop in pasta, & cook over moderate heat for abt 10 mins, or until tender but still al dente. Drain well. Serve pasta & dairy sauce separately. Each diner fills his plate w/pasta & spoons over as much sauce as wanted.
