RUNZAS
These Russo-German beef-cabbage mixtures encased in yeast dough were called kraut runsas by German farmers who had first settled in Russia and then emigrated to Nebraska. Later they became kraut baroques. Today the local chains of Runza Huts and Runza Drive-Inns have copyrighted the name for a dish not unlike a Cornish pasty. Nebraskans on home leave always return with runzas.

Steps:
- Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Stir in ground beef, and cook until crumbly and no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Stir in chopped onion, and cook until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes more. Add the chopped cabbage; cook and stir until the cabbage has softened, about 10 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then spread the mixture onto a baking sheet to cool until cool enough to handle.
- Once the mixture has cooled, flatten a dinner roll, and place several tablespoons of the cabbage mixture in the center. Pull the edges of the dough over the filling and pinch to seal. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
- Heat the oil in a deep-fryer or electric skillet to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Fry bierocks a few at a time in the preheated oil on both sides until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes; drain on paper towels.

NEBRASKAN RUNZAS
Steps:
- Make the dough: Combine 3/4 cup warm water (approximately 110 degrees F),the yeast and a pinch of sugar in a large mixing bowl and let sit until foamy, about 10 minutes.
- Add 3 eggs and whisk to combine. Add half of the bread flour and beat with a wooden spoon until good and thready, about 3 minutes. Add the butter, the remaining 3 tablespoons sugar, the remaining flour and the salt and mix well. The dough will be a little sticky. Let rest 15 minutes.
- Knead the dough to develop the gluten until it feels tight and smooth, about 5 minutes. Transfer the dough to a lightly buttered bowl, cover and let it rise for 1 hour at room temperature. Then chill in the refrigerator,1 to 2 hours or overnight.
- Remove the dough from the refrigerator and divide it into 8 even portions. Roll each one into a ball and leave on the counter, covered loosely, to warm up, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, make the filling: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef, season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook, breaking up the beef, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer it to a bowl.
- Drain and discard all but a film of the fat from the skillet. Add the butter; when it has melted, add the onion. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until light golden brown, about 15 minutes. Add the garlic, thyme and rosemary and cook 3 minutes. Add the mixture to the bowl containing the beef.
- Without cleaning the skillet, add 1 tablespoon canola oil. Saute the spinach over high heat until wilted and the excess liquid has evaporated, about 1 minute. Chop the spinach, then add it to the beef mixture and set aside to cool.
- Roll out the dough: Flatten a dough ball on a heavily floured surface and roll out into a 3-by-5-inch rectangle. Then make wrapping flaps from the four corners of the rectangle by rolling out each corner thinly so you have a thick rectangle with four thinner triangular wings at the corners.
- Fill the runzas: Spoon 1/2 cup of the beef filling into the center of the dough rectangle and wrap the flaps over it, pinching to close. Flip the bundle over in your hands, gently forming the runza into a fat football shape. Set the runza seam-side down on an oiled baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining filling and dough balls, arranging them on 2 oiled baking sheets. Let the runzas rise about an inch, uncovered, about 45 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Whisk the remaining egg and 2 tablespoons water to make an egg wash and brush it thinly over the tops of the runzas. Bake until golden brown, 25 minutes. Serve hot.
KRAUT RUNZAS
Steps:
- Lay foil out on counter (enough to hold 48 rolls), spray with non-stick cooking spray. Place frozen rolls on foil & cover with plastic wrap that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. (Dough will stick if not sprayed.) Let rise 3-4 hrs. Brown ground chuck in large pan. Add kraut. Let sit to incorporate flavors until rolls rise. Cover 2 cookie sheets with foil & spray with non-stick cooking spray. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Using (2) raised rolls, roll into a circle on a floured piece of foil, place a heaping straining ladle of meat mixture in center of dough, fold up sides & place upside down on a cookie sheet. Each cookie sheet will hold (6). Brush with melted butter & sprinkle with salt. Let rise about 20-25 min. ONLY BAKE 1 SHEET AT A TIME!
- When you put the 1st sheet in to bake, fill 2nd sheet, it should be ready to put in oven when 1st sheet is done. Bake 25 min, rotate pan and bake 5 min. longer or until browned. Remove to foil & brush w/melted butter. (Re-use cookie sheets, no need to change foil or spray.)
