  • - Sieve (Fine Mesh): Essential for sifting dry ingredients such as flour or cocoa powder to remove lumps and aerate the mixture.

  • - Silicone Baking Mat: Provides a non-stick surface in baking, suitable for rolling out pie crusts and dough without adding extra fats.

  • - Dutch Oven (Cast Iron): Great for even heat distribution when cooking filling that requires a simmer or braise.

  • - Measuring Cups and Spoons Set: Accurate tools needed to measure ingredients precisely, ensuring the right proportions are used.

  • - Pie Dish (9-inch): Ideal for holding the assembled piroshki before baking, as well as serving them neatly afterward.

  • - Rolling Pin: For rolling out dough to a consistent thickness and size suitable for filling and sealing in the case of handmade pie crusts or skins.

  • - Food Processor (with Dough Blade): Can be used to quickly mix ingredients when making fillings, especially useful if you have difficulty kneading by hand.

  • - Oven Thermometer: Ensures that the oven is at the correct temperature for baking, which is crucial for achieving perfect results in any recipe including piroshki.

  • - Pastry Brush (Silicone): Useful for applying egg wash to the dough or filling before baking to help with browning and sealing of the piroshki.

  • - Pie Server: For serving handmade pie crusts, including piroshki, ensuring a clean presentation without damaging the pastry's structure.
