Thank you I couldn't find anyone else who rolled it up like my mum did ❤️

[@bluewaltz4279]

My mother made Zelnik with a large carton of cottage cheese and about 6 eggs, rather than just 1. She separated the dough into about 8 or 10 patties, refrigerated it overnight, giving the Zelnik puffed pastry. Delicious!

[@bettyhoran8153]

This is fantastic! Brought back so many memories of my mum making zelnik. You both did a great job of presenting this clip! I'm inspired and going to attempt to make it! Thank you! Ps I love the rolling pin that you can only get in Europe (my mum had the exact same one).

[@helendimoska8809]

you can get wooden dowels from hardware stores I hear that look similar that can be used like that

[@bluewaltz4279]

My Mom had a rolling pin like this, and it was purchased in the USA. My sister has it now, and her daughter makes the zelnik!

[@brinalpetrovic5560]

Loved watching your mum making the Zelnik!

[@mellake7052]

Your mum is very skilled - and you seem a son to be proud of. 👍❤️🙂

Very nice home made pastry.. I like the spanakopita with feta.. bravo !!

[@emilyzdravkovaalioto5882]

This is not a spanakopita, this is "zelnik", the method of work is deferent.

[@cherriesnhoney]

ive never made it like this, definitely going to try...my mom taught us with a million stretched out sheets and crisco/butter melted...lol, always tastes great but way too long to make...tfs:)

[@lilapopcheff6021]

I must try this way, with the butter - nice job, looks scrumptious. tfs

No it's stolen

[@stbara]

@NMT NMT WTF!!! Why do you have to be so mean??? What does it have to do with politics??? Why you Bulgarians have to mix EVERYTHING with evil politics when it comes to Macedonia and Macedonians? You are telling them who they are? Do YOU KNOW who you are? Please...!!!

[@stbara]

@@aokiaoki4238 What do you mean by "stolen"? Stolen from where? From whom? With all the respect, but according to your name it doesn't look like you are some authority to make such a statement...

[@JuliaKara311]

[@soheilajahangard7838]

Which flour you used a weak flour or strong flour? Thanks

[@drawitout]

soheila jahangard It would be weak. Pastries are tougher with strong flour, typically.

Zelnik ili zeljanica, najlepša pita na svetu. Pravi se u Makedoniji i južnoj Srbiji, ali ovo u videu nije originalan recept, pa sam malo razočarana. Naravno, lajk za trud. Vidi se da su nespretni, pa još ni oklagijom ne umeju da rade. Ako pristane moja mama, imaćete pravu zeljanicu. Kore se rade oklagijom, pa odstoje, da se malo prosuše onako razvijene, potreban veći prostor, pa se redjaju pouljene prazne preko tepsije jedna preko druge dok je u sredini fil, pa se kore zajedno, onaj deo van granica tepsije prebaci vrati u tepsiju. Kada se ispeče (ne seče se pita pre pečenja) onda se napravi preliv od vode, masnoće i soli kojim se kad ukuva, prelije pita i vrati u rernu da upije tečnost. Ova pita se pravi sa zeljem, kiselim kupusom, prazilukom. Kiseli kupus se izdinsta na ulju pa se postavi na sred tepsije kao fil i pokrije jednom koricom, dok su okolo prazne kore. Ovo je posna varijanta i meni najlepša. Praziluk i zelje idu sa sirom, ali ovaj fil može da se stavi u sredinu tepsije na gomili ili da se filuju kore, a postupak sa korama je isti kao što sam već navela. Ova pita je najkomplikovanija za pravljenje ali i najlepša. Od ovog dalje nema. Naravno, ovo se odnosi na moju tj.pravu verziju zeljanice, zelnika...

[@monat.5663]

Sekoja zemja razlicen recept i razlicni instrumenti za rabota. Vaka se pravi vo Makedonija, so vakvo sukalo, ne so oklagija i bas na vakov nacin vo sekoja kukja, samo ne se seci pred pecenje i e prevkusno. Probajte 🙂

[@makedonijaljubovmoja]

Vas recept, gospodjo, u sustini je grcka "spanakopita" a u nasim krajevima u Makedoniji zovu ga ponekad "zeljanica". Zelnik nije isto kao spanakopita. To se vi bunite i gresite recept i ime recepta. Ova zena na klipu ODLICNO RADI I ZNA SVOJ POSAO. Zato prije da pricate gluposti naucite. Ova zena je starija i sigurno zna vise od mene a i od vas. Nadam se da niste necija snaja i da ne jedete dushu nekoj svekrvi. Danas vi mladi ste tako bezdushni !!!

[@bluewaltz4279]

If she wouldn't cut up the dough just before putting it in the oven, it would rise up more! Just a suggestion!

[@brankamitrovic3843]

Odlicno izgleda!

Jako nevjesto razvijanje oklagijom ,ali upornost se isplatila na kraju.Vjerujem da je bilo preukusno.

Ok guys let me tell you greek moms the dont no how to dou home made filo the bae redi 🙏🏻🇨🇦

[@mrknopester]

Way too much butter...

[@Calul]

+nopeyeahyou You can't be serious... Not only does the butter make the dough flaky, it also gives it a really better flavor. I've also seen vegetable or olive oil used...

[@rukirukiorg5693]

IF you had only seen how much butter goes into puff pastry, croissant etc.. even the cakes have mostly a lot of butter..
