We finally found the empanada press that so many of our visitors had been looking for! This is the ONLY size available. This empanada press/ dough press is also ideal for making: turnovers, calzones, dumplings, pocket sandwiches and piroshki (a Russian style pocket sandwich). Dimensions: The total diameter (outer ridge to outer ridge) is 6"* The round inner circle diameter is 4.5". Therefore the pocket itself (folded over) would be 2 1/4". * Use the bottom side of press as a cutter - cut dough in a perfect 6" diameter circle! Cleaning Instructions: wash in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Beef-Filled Empanada Recipe 1/2 lb. lean ground beef 1/2 tablespoon vegetable shortening 1/2 cup chopped onion 1/2 cup chopped fresh tomato 1/4 cup chopped green pepper 1/2 clove garlic, minced 1 tablespoon flour 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon black pepper 1 pie crust (9 or 12 inch) 1 tablespoon water 1 egg yolk Sauté beef in shortening until lightly browned. Pour off excess fat and drain beef on paper towel to get out all excess fat. Return beef to pan, add onion, tomato, green pepper, and garlic. Cook until onion is tender, stirring often. Blend in flour, salt, and black pepper. Cook until thickened, stirring constantly. Let cool. Prepare pie crust and roll to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into 6 inch rounds and place in floured dough press. Place 3 Tbp meat mixture onto rounds and fold, forming fried pies. Place on ungreased baking pan. Add water to egg yolk, beat slightly. Brush tops of pastries lightly with egg mixture. Bake in hot oven (425 F) until browned, 10-15 minutes. Yield: about 6 large empanadas. For more tasty and spicy (at times) Tex- Mex recipes click here.
