this is a yeasted pastry with a strawberry filling... the recipe and photo looked so good... they are from the Saveur in Issue #121
Ingredients
- 8 oz. strawberries, hulled and shopping list
- thinly sliced shopping list
- 19 tbsp. plus 1 tsp. sugar shopping list
- 1⁄2 tsp. fresh lemon juice shopping list
- 1 1⁄4-oz. package active dry yeast shopping list
- 4 tbsp. unsalted butter, softened, shopping list
- plus 2 tbsp. melted shopping list
- 1⁄2 tsp. kosher salt shopping list
- 1 egg yolk shopping list
- 3 1⁄2 cups flour shopping list
- 3⁄4 cup milk shopping list
How to make it
- 1. Combine berries, 12 tbsp. sugar, lemon juice, and 1⁄4 cup water in a 2-qt. pan over medium-high heat. Cook until thick, 8–10 minutes. Remove from heat; mash berries until chunky; let cool. In a bowl, stir the yeast, 1 tsp. sugar, and 1⁄2 cup water heated to 115°; let sit until foamy. In a large bowl, beat softened butter and 3 tbsp. sugar until combined. Add salt and egg yolk; beat until smooth. Add yeast mixture, 3 1⁄4 cups flour, and milk; form a dough. Knead dough in bowl to form a ball. Cover bowl with a towel; set aside in a warm place to let rise, about 1 hour. To make crumb topping, combine remaining sugar, 1 tbsp. melted butter, and remaining flour in a bowl; set aside.
- 2. Heat oven to 375°. Divide dough into 16 balls; arrange on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush with remaining melted butter; cover with plastic wrap; let rise for 30 minutes. Using back of a spoon, make an indentation in each ball. Spoon 1 tbsp. filling into each; sprinkle with crumb topping. Bake until golden, 30–35 minutes

Kolaches are so awesome...haven't found any yet up here, nobody knows what they are - but every time I go back to Texas, I really enjoy them. A bit time consuming, but worth it. Also love your other 3 fillings! Thanks...and five forks!
