       Yield: 8 servings 
   
       2 c  Flour 
       2    Egg 
     1/2 ts Salt 
     1/3 c  Water 
            Savory cheese filling 
   1 1/2 c  Farmer cheese 
       1 ts Lemon juice 
       1 ts Sugar 
       1    Egg 
       1    Egg yolk 
     1/4 ts Salt 
   
   1. Mound flour on a bread board and make a well in the center. 2. 
   Drop eggs and salt into well. Add water; working from the center to 
   the outside of flour mound, mix flour into liquid in center with one 
   hand and keep flour mounded with the other. Knead until dough is 
   firm. 3. Cover dough with warm bowl 10 min. 4. Divide dough into 
   halves. On floured surface, using half the dough at a time, roll 
   dough as thin as possible. 5. Cut out 3-inch rounds with large 
   biscuit cutter. (Or whatever). 6. Place a small spoonful of filling 
   (see later) a little to one side on each round of dough. Moisten edge 
   with water, fold over and press edges together firmly. Be sure they 
   are well sealed. 7. Drop dumplings into boiling salted water. Cook 
   gently 3 to 5 minutes, or until pierogi float. (1 1/2 to 2 doz) There 
   are all kinds of fillings. I'll give you two. SAUCE PREP: Press 
   cheese through a sieve into a bowl. Add remaining ingredients, mix.
