About the dish
Pelmeni are small, round dumplings of thin dough made from flour, egg and water, filled with raw minced meat and onion. They are especially associated with Siberia and the Urals, where families made them by the hundred in winter and froze them outside as a store for the long months ahead. They are boiled in salted water or broth and served with soured cream, butter, vinegar or mustard, sometimes in the broth itself like a soup. They are among the most popular dishes in Russian homes and canteens, and making them is often a whole-family affair.
