   Add the flour, semolina and flax egg. Knead gently into a soft dough that doesn't stick to your hands.

   💡If the dough is sticky, add a little more flour, a tablespoon at a time: dough with a lot of flour comes out hard and heavy after cooking.

   Remove the pit from each of the apricots and put a sugar cube in its place.

5. 5
   Divide the dough into 12 pieces, flatten each piece on a floured palm, place one of the apricots in the center and close into a smooth ball.

   💡Seal each dumpling well, with no cracks: water gets in through a crack, and the dumpling falls apart in the pot.

   Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, lower the heat and add the dumplings, spaced apart. Cook for 10–12 minutes, until they float.
