    List of Ingredients




    Runskis/Runzas

    Runski Dough:

    2 cups flour
    1 Tbsp sugar
    1 1/4 tsp salt
    2 1/2 Tbsp nonfat dry milk
    4 Tbsp unsalted butter at room temperature
    1 package yeast dissolved in 3 Tbsp water with 1 tsp of sugar
    1 egg lightly beaten with 1/4 cup very cold water

    Combine flour, sugar, salt and dry milk. Cut in butter. Add yeast
    mixture and egg-water mixture and knead vigorously 3 to 4 minutes
    until silky, adding flour if necessary to make dough workable. Cover
    and let rise in warm place 1 to 2 hours, until double in bulk. (I
    made this dough in my bread machine).

    Filling:

    1 lb ground chuck
    1/2 tsp salt
    1/4 tsp black pepper
    1/4 tsp dry mustard
    1/8 tsp garlic powder
    1 to 2 dashes hot sauce
    1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
    2 tsp dehydrated minced onions, soaked 10 minutes in 1/4 cup warm water
    1/4 cup dehydrated instant potato flakes
    1/2 lb sauerkraut, drained but not rinsed.

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix all ingredients except potato
    flakes and sauerkraut. Roast in shallow pan 30 minutes until meat is
    no longer pink. Break up large pieces of meat. Drain off grease.
    Mix in potato flakes and sauerkraut. Cool to room temperature.
    (I found that this method of baking the filling was really easy!)

    Assembly:

    dough
    filling
    1 egg beaten with 1 Tbsp cold water
    9 slices Colby or other mild semihard cheese

    (This assembly method is mine, not the Sterns). Divide dough into
    nine pieces, each approximately the size of a tennis ball. Roll each
    out into a circle. Place slice of cheese on circle, then small
    amount of filling. Fold over and crimp edges. Cover and let rise
    for one hour.

    Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Brush runskis with egg wash. Bake 25
    minutes or until brown. Makes 9 runskis.
