Tips:

  • For a crispy crust, use cold butter and ice water.
  • Do not overwork the dough, as this will make the knishes tough.
  • If the dough is too sticky, add more flour one tablespoon at a time until it is no longer sticky.
  • If the dough is too dry, add one tablespoon of water at a time until it comes together.
  • Let the dough rest for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out.
  • To prevent the knishes from sticking to the baking sheet, grease the sheet with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper.
  • Bake the knishes until they are golden brown and the filling is hot and bubbly.
  • Let the knishes cool for a few minutes before serving.

Conclusion:

New York knishes are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. With their crispy crust and flavorful filling, they are sure to please everyone at the table. Whether you make them with potato, kasha, or meat, be sure to follow the tips above for perfect results.
