I have made kreplach by hand. The dough is not difficult to make, but it has to be rolled out quite thin, as it expands when cooking. They can be frozen uncooked. Place them on a flat tray or baking tray and freeze them. Once frozen place them in Ziploc freezer bags or any container you might want to use. This prevents them from sticking together and you can take out as many as you need. If you have a pasta machine, it is easier to roll the dough thin enough. Keep the dough you are not immediately using covered so that it doesn’t dry out.

The dough is very sticky – I added 2 more cups of flour and it is still a sticky dough. What did I do wrong? The dough is very sticky – I added 2 more cups of flour and it is still a sticky dough. What did I do wrong?

Hi Brocha. I don’t know what you might have omitted. Adding two much cups and still having sticky dough is unusual.

I have a recipe that callesfor two tablespoons of water and about the same amount of oil. Other than that, the recipe is the same and they always come out fine. Maybe try that.
