  1. My grandmother from Siberia made these all the time. In the winter all the women from the village would go from house to house making them. They would fill gunny sacks and put outside to freeze. The women would then make a broth and go outside to get scoops of the pelmeni and cook in the broth. Sort of a staple.<br/>I make them and to speed the process use won ton wrappers cut down a bit.
