Túrós Pogácsa (Hungarian Quark Pogácsa) and Culinaria Hungary🇭🇺


Instructions:

  1. Activate the yeast:
    Mix yeast with warm milk and sugar. Let it bubble for 10 minutes.
  2. Mix the dough:
    In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Add in yeast mixture, butter, egg, and túró. Knead into a soft dough (about 8 mins). It should be slightly sticky but workable.
  3. First rise:
    Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled (about 1 hour).
  4. Shape:
    Roll out the dough to 1-inch thick. Use a round cutter to cut out pogácsa. Place on a baking sheet lined with parchment.
  5. Second rise:
    Let the cut pogácsa rise another 20–30 mins. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  6. Finish and bake:
    Brush tops with beaten egg. Sprinkle cheese if desired. Bake for 20–25 minutes until puffed and golden.

🧈 Serving:

Serve warm with soups, cold cuts, or just a mug of tea. These freeze beautifully and reheat like a dream!
