/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Cooking is all about learning lessons from experience!

So, I used a yeast dough, and I did not separate the rolled-out empanada wrappers with wax or parchment paper. That was stupid!

I rolled out 14 wrappers initially, and was only able to salvage 11 of them because some of them totally stuck together and the plastic wrap I used to package them was slightly bulging. That said, they got a good long cold fermentation so the flavor should be nice.

I feel like maybe they are a bit too gigantic to fry and actually cook all the way through. I will see how they look after their second rise.

I realize they are gigantic and kind of messy looking but I have not made empanadas in years and I shall only improve. Pictured is 4 but I made 11 total. I will let them rise.

Is it worth risking frying them or should I just bake them?

I had leftover Peruvian-style roasted chicken with plantains and yucca fries.
