Isn't that the same as Russian Boolki?

Re: Cheoreg

You know this is hilarious - I was just googling Cheoreg again for something else and I found this... Janig66 seemed familiar then I realised that that was actually me!

I did find a solution for the bread machine. All the hard work is done by the machine now and the cheoreg has become a predictable and easy exercise.

All the kneading and rising happens in the machine except of course that I take it out, plait it and leave it for a final rise in a warm space - often just in an oven that was warm.

Delicious! Enjoy your cheoreg this Easter!

Just do it the old fashioned way, no pain... no gain......

Re: Cheoreg

Hi everyone,

Has anyone made a successful cheoreg in a bread machine?

If so, please reply - I need help!

Instead of all that, just go buy it from an Armenian pastry store... it will save you all that hassle.

I did it

I tested it tonight using my tried and tested recipe (no modifications) and set the machine to manual with 2 nice long rise cycles. I took it out after two rises, plaited it and cooked it a la conventional style. Its texture is just as good as the best I've made (and well as far as our family goes, my cheoreg is pretty popular lol)

I have to admit tho that it's rather odd to be baking cheoreg in July!

My Rice cooker can replace the Panda Inn. Therefore, a bread thing can out do the hand actions.

NOTHING and I mean nothing can possibly replace hand kneaded dough my friend!!

Hi guys and thanks for the replies )

I'm always happy to try (yet another) cheoreg recipe - but the one I have now has served me quite nicely for a few years. Tastes just fab but well you all know about that )

I just want to cut the kneading out so I was wondering if anyone has tried to do the dough bit in a bread maker... I'm going to try it using my current recipe sometime (before Easter!) and see how that goes shock

Just hoping for some tips.
