Delicious lean cookies with cucumber pickle

Sweet pastries are not only tasty, but also interesting. In ancient times, our mothers and grandmothers knew many recipes. Often among the ingredients there were such that now it is difficult to imagine them in desserts. For example, a brine used to knead a lean cookie dough.

The beauty of this recipe also lies in its cheapness: all the products used are available and will certainly be found in your home at any time. You will need:

• 1 cup (200 ml) brine
• 600 g wheat flour;
• 1 tsp baking soda;
• 150 g sugar;
• 0.5 cups vegetable oil;

• 2 tsp dry spice mixtures (cloves, cinnamon, ginger, zest).

  

  You will need flour, brine, butter, sugar and spices

Cucumber pickle is believed to work best for these cookies. But personally, I think it's a matter of taste. You can use tomato or cabbage pickle, and a light canned vegetable marinade based on vinegar generally gives the baked goods an interesting spice flavor. But it is desirable that it is not sharp.

1. Pour the brine into a deep bowl, season with spices and add baking soda. Stir and wait for the soda to extinguish with the brine. Then add sugar and mix thoroughly again.

2. Pour vegetable oil into the mixture, beat lightly with a whisk or fork. Stir, gradually adding flour in small portions.

   

   Add flour in small portions to mix the dough evenly

3. When the dough is firm, keep stirring it with your hands. Leave a small amount of flour to roll out the dough comfortably.

   

   Be sure to remember the dough well with your hands

4. The added vegetable oil will make the cookie dough sticky, so sprinkle it with flour before rolling it out. The thickness of the rolled layer should be 5–7 mm.

   

   When rolling out the dough, sprinkle it with flour so that it does not stick to the rolling pin.

5. Cut figurines out of the dough. To do this, you can use special molds or simply cut the layer with a knife into strips measuring 1.5 X 10 cm, small squares, rectangles.

6. Place the figurines on baking trays lightly oiled with vegetable oil and place in the oven preheated to 190 ° C. Bake for 20 minutes: the biscuits in the brine should remain light, only slightly browned.

   

   Bake cookies until lightly browned

7. When the cookies are ready, transfer them to a dish and serve immediately, while hot, on the table. Sprinkle with powdered sugar or sesame seeds if desired. To keep the cooled cookies from stale longer, store them in a bag or other closed container.

   

   Cookies can be sprinkled with icing sugar.
