Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     Eastern European     Czech

Time 1h

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 6

½ pound poppy seeds
1 cup milk
¼ cup margarine
¾ cup white sugar
1 pinch salt
2 eggs, beaten

Steps:

  • Grind the poppy seeds in a mill or coffee grinder.
  • Combine the milk, margarine, and sugar in a saucepan. Cook on low heat, stirring often, until the sugar dissolves. Gradually pour about half of the hot milk into the beaten eggs, whisking constantly. Return the egg and milk mixture to the saucepan.
  • Continue to cook and stir until the mixture begins to thicken and coats the back of a metal spoon. (Run your finger down the coated spoon: it should draw a clear line.) Add the poppy seeds and stir well to blend.

YEASTED COFFEE CAKE WITH POPPY-SEED FILLING



Yeasted Coffee Cake with Poppy-Seed Filling image

This coffee cake may take longer to make than others, but the results are worth it. Freeze one for later.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Dessert & Treats Recipes     Cake Recipes

Yield Makes 2 nine-inch cakes

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups warm water
1 1/2 cups warm milk
8 tablespoons (1 stick) butter, melted, plus more for bowl and pans
1 tablespoon coarse salt
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1 teaspoon ground cardamom
2 large eggs
2 packages instant active dry yeast
10 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for work surface
1/2 cup packed dark-brown sugar
Poppy-Seed Filling

Steps:

  • Combine the warm water, milk, 4 tablespoons butter, salt, sugar, cardamom, and eggs in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Sprinkle yeast over top; let stand until foamy, 10 to 15 minutes.
  • With the mixer running, gradually add flour. Mix until well combined; dough will be sticky. Turn dough out onto a floured surface, and gently knead until dough forms a ball. Place in a large buttered bowl to rise, covered with plastic wrap, until doubled, about 1 1/2 hours.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Butter two 9-inch tube pans; sprinkle bottom of each with 1/4 cup brown sugar. Punch down dough; turn onto lightly floured surface. With a rolling pin, roll into a rectangle that is about 14 by 17 inches and about 1/2 inch thick. Brush a third of the remaining butter over the middle third of the dough, and sprinkle with 1 cup of the filling. Fold the bottom third of dough over the filling and overlap the top third, forming an envelope. Rotate the dough 90 degrees. Roll the dough again into a rectangle roughly the same size, and repeat with butter and half of the remaining filling. Repeat one more time, three rollings in all, using remaining filling. Rotate dough 90 degrees, and let rest, covered with a damp cloth or plastic wrap, for 15 minutes. Roll dough one final time into a long rectangle, 11 by 17 inches and about 1 inch thick. With a sharp knife, cut a 1-inch slice from the end of the dough. Pick it up, twisting it gently into a spiral. Place the twist in the bottom of the pan, forming a circle. Repeat, using remaining dough, filling each tube pan with 2 layers of twisted dough. Cover each cake with plastic wrap, and let rise until doubled, about 45 minutes.
  • Bake cakes until golden brown, 40 to 50 minutes. Let rest in pans 15 minutes before inverting. Flip cakes over so attractive side is up. Serve cakes warm or at room temperature. After cooling completely, cakes can be frozen, wrapped in two layers of plastic wrap, up to 1 month.

Deluxe Lemon Poppy Seed Rolls with Raspberry Filling image

Categories     Bread     Yeast Bread Recipes

Time 2h40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 16

¾ cup milk
1 large egg
1 large egg yolk
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 tablespoon poppy seeds
1 lemon, zested
2 teaspoons active dry yeast
2 cups all-purpose flour, or more as needed
¼ cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
1 ¼ teaspoons salt
½ cup seedless raspberry jam
½ cup confectioners' sugar
½ tablespoon milk
½ tablespoon lemon juice
¼ teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Combine milk, egg, egg yolk, lemon juice, sugar, poppy seeds, lemon zest, and yeast in a large bowl. Stir in 2 cups flour, butter, and salt, working in more flour as needed to pull dough away from the sides of the bowl.
  • Turn out onto a floured surface and knead until dough is smooth and elastic, adding more flour as necessary. Place in a lightly greased bowl; cover, and let rise until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
  • Gently deflate dough and roll into a 12x10-inch rectangle. Spread with raspberry jam, leaving a 1/2-inch border. Roll up from the long side, like a jelly roll, and seal. Carefully slice log into 12 pieces and place cut-side down into a greased 8x8-inch square pan. Cover and let rise until puffy, 40 to 45 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Bake in the center of the preheated oven until lightly browned on top, about 30 minutes.
  • Make glaze by stirring together confectioners' sugar, milk, lemon juice, and vanilla extract in a bowl. Drizzle over warm rolls.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Breakfast & Brunch Recipes

Time 3h20m

Yield Makes 9

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 cup whole milk
1 stick unsalted butter, cut into 8 pieces, plus more for bowl
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 1/4 teaspoons (one 1/4-ounce envelope) active dry yeast
3 1/2 to 4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for surface and hands
Salt
2 large eggs
1 large egg yolk lightly beaten with 1 tablespoon heavy cream, for egg wash
8 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/4 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 large egg yolk
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons poppy seeds
1/3 cup cherry preserves
1 cup confectioners' sugar
3 tablespoons whole milk or heavy cream

Steps:

  • Make the dough: Warm milk, butter, and granulated sugar in a small saucepan over a low heat until mixture reaches 120 degrees on a candy thermometer. (Butter will not melt completely.) Pour warm milk mixture over yeast in the bowl of a mixer; whisk to combine. Cover with 2 cups flour and 1 teaspoon salt (do not stir). Let stand for 5 minutes.
  • Using the dough-hook attachment, mix dough on medium speed, scraping down sides of bowl, until a sticky dough forms. Mix in eggs, 1 at a time. Reduce speed to low, and mix in 1 1/2 cups flour. (If dough is too sticky, mix in an additional 1/2 cup flour, 1 tablespoon at a time.) Continue to mix until dough is smooth and pulls away from sides of bowl, about 5 minutes more.
  • Using floured hands, turn out dough onto a lightly floured surface. Knead dough into a ball, and transfer to a large buttered bowl. Cover with plastic wrap, and let stand in a warm place until dough is doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
  • Return dough to lightly floured surface, and punch down. Reshape into a ball. Let stand, covered, for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the filling: Beat cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, and vanilla with a mixer on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Beat in egg yolk. Add poppy seeds, and beat until evenly distributed.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Roll out dough on a lightly floured surface into a 16-inch square. Trim edges using a sharp paring knife to form a 15-inch square. (If dough seems too warm or too elastic, refrigerate or freeze for 10 minutes.) Cut dough into nine 5-inch squares, and divide between 2 baking sheets.
  • Cut a 2-inch line from the 4 corners of each square into the center. Spread a heaping tablespoon filling onto each. Dollop centers with a heaping teaspoon preserves. Fold the 2 top corners into the center of each square. Repeat with remaining corners to form petals. Brush petals with egg wash. Bake until deep golden brown, 16 to 18 minutes. Let cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, make the glaze: Mix together confectioners' sugar and milk until smooth. Cover with plastic wrap until ready to use. (If glaze gets stiff, add more milk, 1 teaspoon at a time, until desired consistency is achieved.)
  • Drizzle Danishes with glaze, and let stand for 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right poppy seeds: Use Dutch or Turkish poppy seeds for a sweet flavor and rich blue color. Hungarian poppy seeds can also be used but have a more bitter flavor.
  • Grind the poppy seeds: Grinding the poppy seeds releases their flavor and oils, making them easier to mix with the other ingredients. You can use a coffee grinder, food processor, or mortar and pestle.
  • Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better the filling will taste. If you can, use homemade milk, butter, and eggs.
  • Don't overcook the filling: The filling should be cooked until it is thick and creamy, but not so long that it becomes dry and rubbery. This can take anywhere from 20 to 30 minutes.
  • Let the filling cool completely: Before using the filling, let it cool completely to room temperature. This will help it to set and thicken. You can speed up the cooling process by placing the filling in a shallow dish and setting it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Conclusion:

Poppy seed filling is a versatile and delicious filling that can be used in a variety of baked goods, such as pastries, cakes, and breads. It is also a popular ingredient in savory dishes, such as pierogi and blintzes. With its sweet and nutty flavor, poppy seed filling is a surefire way to add a touch of elegance to your favorite recipes.
