Easy baked goods for Valentine's Day. Details about the plum. Cultivation, beneficial properties and choice of variety. Strawberry hearts without baking

1. First, prepare all the necessary products.

2. Next, divide the egg into yolk and white. The yolk goes into the dough, and the white into the glaze.


3. Add sugar to the yolk and mix well with a whisk. The sugar should completely dissolve in the yolk.


4. Then add slightly warmed honey and add vanillin. Mix.


5. Next add sour cream and salt.


6. Also add butter at room temperature. Mix everything well until smooth.


7. Now add baking powder and sifted wheat flour.


8. Knead soft, elastic, tender dough. If there is not enough flour, you can add a little more; the cookie dough should not be liquid.


9. Roll it into a ball, wrap it in cling film or simply put the bag in and put it in the refrigerator for half an hour.


10. Valentine cookies for Valentine's Day should be bright, colorful, and beautiful. Glaze will help us decorate our baked goods the way we want them. To prepare it, take 150 grams of powdered sugar and egg white.


11. Mix them and beat with a mixer. You will have to beat for 6-8 minutes.


12. At the end of whipping, for about one minute, add citric acid at the tip of a knife. The result should be a smooth, glossy mass.


13. Divide the glaze into two unequal parts. You can divide it into equal parts, it all depends on how you decorate your cookies.


14. Add dye to most of the glaze (in my case, raspberry), you can take any other at your discretion.


15. Mix the glaze and dye well. The glaze is ready, put it aside for now, just be sure to cover with cling film. The glaze dries very, very quickly.


16. Meanwhile, the dough has cooled down, take it out of the refrigerator. For ease of rolling, we divide it into several parts. Then we roll each part into a layer 0.5 cm thick.


17. Now use special heart-shaped cutters to cut out cookies.


18. Place the valentines on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. And send it to bake in the oven, preheated to 180 degrees for 10-15 minutes.


19. Our baked goods are ready. We take it out of the oven and cool it.


20. Then you can decorate the cookies the way you want. The glaze is applied first along the outline of the cookie, and then filled in the middle. Further decoration will be dictated by your imagination. Bon appetit!





Two friends are talking:
- The mood is disgusting. There is no desire to celebrate Valentine's Day, or to prepare surprises, or to go to a restaurant - there is no appetite at all.
- Well, I’ll help you with the last one. Decide for yourself: “That’s it, I’m on a diet!”, and immediately your appetite will appear. Tested many times.

Cookies for Valentine's Day doesn't evoke anything positive in you because you don't like this holiday? I'll tell you a secret, I don't understand him either. But I try to please my loved ones with sweets. And try, it won't hurt.


Cookies ingredients:

200 g butter;

2.5 cups flour;

1 cup of sugar;

1/3 tsp. salt.


Ingredients for glaze:

200 g powdered sugar;

40 g egg white;

food coloring optional.


In addition, you will need paper and ribbons.


Cut butter at room temperature into several pieces for convenience.


Transfer to the bowl of a food processor.


I leave the whites for the glaze, so instead of one egg I add two yolks to the dough. If you're not planning on playing with the frosting, use a whole egg.


Add sugar, salt. At the same stage, if desired, you can add vanillin, cinnamon, nutmeg, cardamom, lemon or orange zest to the dough.


Mix.


And we start adding flour. The quantity indicated in the recipe is approximate. You may need a little more or a little less flour, depending on the fat content of the butter, the size of the eggs, the moisture content of the flour and a dozen other factors.


Better, but clearly still not enough.


A simple test: touch the dough with your fingers. If dough remains on the skin, it means there is too little flour.


But this already looks like what should happen in the end: the dough is shiny and almost does not stick to the walls of the bowl.


And yes, when touched it does not leave marks on the hand.


Take a small amount of dough and roll it out into a layer up to 4 mm thick.


Cut out hearts (hearts, of course!).


Carefully transfer them to a baking sheet.


Bake at 180 degrees for about 15 minutes - do not overbake, the cookies burn very quickly.


If you have the energy and mood for Valentine's decor, after transferring the cookies to a baking sheet, use a cocktail straw to make 2 small holes in the center of each cookie. And bake the same way.


Already at this stage the cookies are breathtakingly delicious! It is very difficult to resist not eating a couple of pieces.


But the icing awaits us! Mix the whites lightly with a fork.


Add powdered sugar.


Mix.


Don't forget about the dye.


Cut squares from regular parchment paper.


Place a small amount of glaze on the corner of the square.


And we wrap the paper with a cornet.


Cut off a small piece of paper on the corner, pressing evenly on the cornet, and decorate the cookies.



Isn't it beauty?


Won't you argue?


All that remains is to write the “nominal” notes.


And attach them to the liver.




Have a good mood and, of course, a lot of love!


P.S. Cookies for Valentine's Day are prepared on the basis of regular butter cookies, the recipe for which is described in detail.


Astrakhan tomatoes ripen remarkably well lying on the ground, but this experience should not be repeated in the Moscow region. Our tomatoes need support, support, garter. My neighbors use all sorts of stakes, tie-downs, loops, ready-made plant supports and mesh fencing. Each method of fixing a plant in a vertical position has its own advantages and “side effects”. I'll tell you how I place tomato bushes on trellises and what comes out of it.

Flies are a sign of unsanitary conditions and carriers of infectious diseases that are dangerous to both people and animals. People are constantly looking for ways to get rid of unpleasant insects. In this article we will talk about the Zlobny TED brand, which specializes in fly repellents and knows a lot about them. The manufacturer has developed a specialized line of products to get rid of flying insects anywhere quickly, safely and at no extra cost.

The summer months are the time for hydrangeas to bloom. This beautiful deciduous shrub produces luxuriously fragrant flowers from June to September. Florists readily use large inflorescences for wedding decorations and bouquets. To admire the beauty of a flowering hydrangea bush in your garden, you should take care of the proper conditions for it. Unfortunately, some hydrangeas do not bloom year after year, despite the care and efforts of gardeners. We will explain why this happens in the article.

Every summer resident knows that plants need nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium for full development. These are three main macronutrients, the deficiency of which significantly affects the appearance and yield of plants, and in advanced cases can lead to their death. But not everyone understands the importance of other macro- and microelements for plant health. And they are important not only in themselves, but also for the effective absorption of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.

Garden strawberries, or strawberries, as we used to call them, are one of the early aromatic berries that summer generously gifts us with. How happy we are about this harvest! In order for the “berry boom” to repeat every year, we need to take care of the berry bushes in the summer (after the end of fruiting). The laying of flower buds, from which ovaries will form in the spring and berries in the summer, begins approximately 30 days after the end of fruiting.

Spicy pickled watermelon is a savory appetizer for fatty meat. Watermelons and watermelon rinds have been pickled since time immemorial, but this process is labor-intensive and time-consuming. According to my recipe, you can simply prepare pickled watermelon in 10 minutes, and by the evening the spicy appetizer will be ready. Watermelon marinated with spices and chili can be stored in the refrigerator for several days. Be sure to keep the jar in the refrigerator, not only for the sake of safety - when chilled, this snack is simply licking your fingers!

Among the variety of species and hybrids of philodendrons, there are many plants, both gigantic and compact. But not a single species competes in unpretentiousness with the main modest one - the blushing philodendron. True, his modesty does not concern the appearance of the plant. Blushing stems and cuttings, huge leaves, long shoots, forming, although very large, but also a strikingly elegant silhouette, look very elegant. Philodendron blushing requires only one thing - at least minimal care.

Thick chickpea soup with vegetables and egg is a simple recipe for a hearty first course, inspired by oriental cuisine. Similar thick soups are prepared in India, Morocco, and Southeast Asian countries. The tone is set by spices and seasonings - garlic, chili, ginger and a bouquet of spicy spices, which can be assembled to your taste. It is better to fry vegetables and spices in clarified butter (ghee) or mix olive and butter in a pan; this, of course, is not the same, but it tastes similar.

Plum - well, who isn’t familiar with it?! She is loved by many gardeners. And all because it has an impressive list of varieties, surprises with excellent yields, pleases with its diversity in terms of ripening and a huge selection of color, shape and taste of fruits. Yes, in some places it feels better, in others it feels worse, but almost no summer resident gives up the pleasure of growing it on his plot. Today it can be found not only in the south, in the middle zone, but also in the Urals and Siberia.

Many ornamental and fruit crops, except drought-resistant ones, suffer from the scorching sun, and conifers in the winter-spring period suffer from sunlight, enhanced by reflection from the snow. In this article we will tell you about a unique product for protecting plants from sunburn and drought - Sunshet Agrosuccess. The problem is relevant for most regions of Russia. In February and early March, the sun's rays become more active, and the plants are not yet ready for new conditions.

“Every vegetable has its own time,” and every plant has its own optimal time for planting. Anyone who has dealt with planting is well aware that the hot season for planting is spring and autumn. This is due to several factors: in the spring the plants have not yet begun to grow rapidly, there is no sweltering heat and precipitation often falls. However, no matter how hard we try, circumstances often develop such that planting has to be carried out in the midst of summer.

Chili con carne translated from Spanish means chili with meat. This is a Texas and Mexican dish whose main ingredients are chili peppers and shredded beef. In addition to the main products there are onions, carrots, tomatoes, and beans. This red lentil chili recipe is delicious! The dish is fiery, scalding, very filling and amazingly tasty! You can make a big pot, put it in containers and freeze - you'll have a delicious dinner for a whole week.

Cucumber is one of the most favorite garden crops of our summer residents. However, not all and not always gardeners manage to get a really good harvest. And although growing cucumbers requires regular attention and care, there is a little secret that will significantly increase their yield. We are talking about pinching cucumbers. Why, how and when to pinch cucumbers, we will tell you in the article. An important point in the agricultural technology of cucumbers is their formation, or type of growth.

Now every gardener has the opportunity to grow absolutely environmentally friendly, healthy fruits and vegetables in their own garden. Atlant microbiological fertilizer will help with this. It contains helper bacteria that settle in the root system area and begin to work for the benefit of the plant, allowing it to actively grow, remain healthy and produce high yields. Typically, many microorganisms coexist around the root system of plants.

Summer is associated with beautiful flowers. Both in the garden and in the rooms you want to admire the luxurious inflorescences and touching flowers. And for this it is not at all necessary to use cut bouquets. The assortment of the best indoor plants includes many beautifully flowering species. In the summer, when they receive the brightest lighting and optimal daylight hours, they can outshine any bouquet. Short-lived or just annual crops also look like living bouquets.

Valentine's Day Recipes - Valentine's Cookies.

Today we're looking at a few Valentine's Day cookie recipes. I will show you 20 ways to decorate cookies for Valentine's Day.

The dough recipes themselves - you will find at the end of this article. I will offer you recipes for different cookies– lemon, chocolate, gingerbread, nut, coconut – but before kneading the dough, let’s see what kind of Valentine’s cookies they are and choose an idea for yourself.

Recipe for Valentine's Day - SCARLET HEARTS.


Add enough food coloring to the dough so that the dough turns red.

ATTENTION. Easter egg dye It is suitable only if it does not contain salt, or if the package contains the inscription “Can be used in confectionery products”. You don't want to end up with a salty cookie.

We glue the baked cookies together; we’ll talk about gluing the cookies below...

Recipes for Valentine's Day - DOUBLE LAYER COOKIES.

"DOUBLE LAYER STRIPED"

We glue two cookies to each other with the usual jam, marmalade, glaze, caramel syrup, or egg white whipped with sugar. Draw diagonal stripes with white icing and sprinkle with red confectionery sprinkles.

White glaze can be made from a white chocolate bar melted in a water bath. Or you can find a recipe for glaze made from egg whites whipped with sugar in our article “Gingerbread houses - all the secrets of craftsmanship” (only on the website ), there you will find a simple and quick caramel and butterscotch glue recipe, they are very convenient and tasty for gluing cookies together.

COOKIES FOR VALENTINE'S DAY "SMALL IN BIG"

Bake cookies in the shape of hearts of different sizes. Paint each heart separately with colored glaze. And stick a small heart on top of the big one.

Colored glaze, convenient for coloring cookies, is best made from a white chocolate bar.

Take 3 cups and place them in a frying pan filled with water. Place the frying pan with the cups on the fire. This is called a water bath. While the water is heating, break white chocolate bars into cups, approximately equal to each container.

Once the chocolate has melted, add a different color of food coloring to each mug. Or one red color, just sprinkle more somewhere (you'll get bright pink), somewhere less (you'll get light pink). We paint the cookies with a brush with still hot chocolate, without turning off the heat under it so that the chocolate does not cool down.

Recipe for Valentine's Day - COOKIES WITH FILLING.

We cut out hearts from the rolled out dough and then make another hole in the shape of a small heart in half of the figures. We bake both whole and “holey” hearts on a baking sheet. Then we glue them together (I indicated the glue recipes above), fill the resulting hole with jam, marmalade, glaze, melted chocolate, sweet cream, mastic.

Or you can immediately put the “holey” cookies on a whole one while still raw and cut the sides with a knife (see 3 photos in the photo series above), you will get such an elegant fringe. Even before baking, place a slice of marmalade or marshmallow into this cavity; it will melt in a hot oven and fill the heart. Or here’s another interesting way...

Recipe for Valentine's Day - INTERESTING DESIGN.

COOKIES FOR VALENTINE'S DAY "CARAMEL HEART"

To create a caramel heart, you will need to cut out holey hearts from the dough (instructions in the previous cookie). Place them on a baking sheet lined with oiled parchment. Pour 1-2 tablespoons of caramel crushed in a coffee grinder into the hole and bake. In a hot oven, the caramel will melt and fill the entire center of the cookie. Caramels can be selected in different colors.

COOKIES FOR VALENTINE'S DAY "TWO-COLOR"

Everything is simple here, you only need 3 molds of different sizes. First, cut out whole large cookies: 10 brown and 10 white. We do it in them a smaller mold holes and exchange heart pieces. That is, we put freshly cut brown cookies into a large white cookie. And in the big brown one we put the piece that we just cut out from the white heart. And we carry out the same manipulation with very tiny molds.

Recipe for Valentine's Day - “HEART WITH CARAMEL SPIRITS”

We crush the caramel in a coffee grinder and sprinkle the cookies with this caramel sugar. To make the caramel stick to the cookies, brush them with jam, marmalade or glaze.
