Cooking

That's what we need. Sorry, I forgot the nuts to capture. They should grind, I grind almost to flour.

For the dough mix flour, sugar, salt, chopped nuts. In warm water bred yeast, add to dry ingredients and knead the dough. The dough will be stiff, but not stick to hands. Cover the bowl with cling film and leave in a warm place for 2 hours.

Coming up the dough can be immediately divided into 16 pieces or tear off a piece. From a piece of roll flagellum.

Then wrap it with a node so that one end was slightly longer than the other. Press "tail" and cut with a knife.

For the formation of the "eyes" of the bird very well suited buckwheat. Take two pellets, insert them on both sides on the "head" of the bird and combine with your fingers. Do not be afraid that a highly tapered, with proofing all aligned. And form a "beak".
