Recipe for Achamas, an international dish with a variety of options

The beautiful and slightly incomprehensible word "achma" is called the delicious cheese pie, which is prepared in Georgia from several layers of dough (the more, the better), pre-cooked, stuffed with cheese - Suluguni or Ossetian, or their wonderful mixture. The main thing is that the preparation of Achma is completed by the creation of food, unsweetened outside and salty inside.

To bake a super pie, do not necessarily have special culinary talents. Moreover, acmma is very convenient, because it does not lose its extraordinary qualities even after it has cooled down and begins to dry up - it will just have to be warmed up so that the whole "bouquet" of taste and aroma will wake up and become the same as immediately After baking. And, of course, this dish must be served to the table hot, so that you can fully appreciate it.

This is how they prepare this dish in its historic homeland - in Georgia. For its preparation take water (300 ml.), Eggs (3 pieces), flour and salt. For the filling you need to take cheese, preferably suluguni (500-700 gr.). Mixing the dough from the necessary ingredients, it should be remembered that the maki should be put into it so much that the mass turned out thick, did not stick to the hands, but it was easily rolled out. Further, the acme prescription presupposes dividing the finished dough into 5 equal parts and rolling them up to the state of flat cakes. Each cake should be lowered for a couple of seconds in hot salted water, then sent to a baking tray, alternating with layers of delicious cheese filling - all layers of the dough must be smeared with melted butter. When everything is laid on a baking tray, the top of the pie should be covered with a layer of raw dough, cut it in equal portions and pour with hot oil. After that, as the recipe of Achma says, you can bake the dish for 20 minutes and send it to the table.

Not very truthful will be the words of the one who will say that he knows how to cook acm properly. The only true recipe is not, because in every region of the Caucasus and in our country this dish is prepared in different ways. Here is one of these recipes - for it you need to take flour (500 grams), sour milk (175 ml.) And eggs (3 pcs.). For the filling, which is prepared in the first place, you need cheese (500 grams), sour cream (100 grams) and butter (200 grams). Cheese should be rubbed with large "shavings", carefully mixed with butter (half portion) and sour cream. Next is to do the test - beat and dilute in sour milk eggs, a little salt, add flour and carefully knead. After the mass is suitable (it takes about 10 minutes), it should be divided into 5 equal pieces. At the same time, it is necessary to bring salted water to a boil, into which the thin dough strips will be lowered for several seconds before being sent to a greased baking sheet.

This recipe of acma requires alternating layers of boiled dough with cheese filling, and it is best if the layers are laid out not exactly, folds, reproducing the effect of the "mountain ridge". When the last layer of dough is in place, the pie can be pinched around the edges, and immediately before baking - cut it into 4 pieces.

Very tasty and such a delicacy, like acmma from lavash. This requires a thin Armenian lavash (3 pieces), hard cheese (500 grams), eggs (6 pcs.), Milk or cream (60 ml.) And smoked sausage (500 grams). Cheese must be rubbed coarse, after which it can be mixed with finely chopped sausage, raw eggs and milk (cream). When the filling is ready, the lavash cakes can be laid out on a baking tray, pre-oiled, topped with a little stuffing, then again with lavash and again cheese with additives. After laying the last cake, you can sprinkle it with the rest of the filling and send it to the oven for half an hour. Such an acme recipe can be considered more rapid than the previous one, as its execution does not need to be further tampered with the test.
