Grandma's Potato Dumplings image

My grandma made these. I have carried on the tradition. I always make more than we need--my family loves them sliced and fried with Thanksgiving leftovers. Serve with gravy. Originally submitted to ThanksgivingRecipe.com.

Time P1DT40m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 large baking potatoes
6 eggs
1 teaspoon salt
2 cups all-purpose flour
3 slices square sandwich bread
2 tablespoons butter

Steps:

  • The day before, boil potatoes with the skins on until tender. Cook enough to make at least 6 cups cold riced potatoes. Peel the potatoes, and rice them. Refrigerate them until needed.
  • Brown 2 to 3 pieces of bread in butter for croutons. Cut into small pieces, and let cool.
  • Combine riced potatoes, 5 or 6 beaten eggs, salt, and flour. Add croutons, and mix together. The mixture should stick together. Too much flour will make them heavy.
  • Form into balls about the size of tennis balls. Drop into boiling water in a large pot. Cover and cook for 10 minutes. Serve immediately.

I thought the dumplings were a bit too greasy. I think I'll try using less butter next time.

The dumplings were a bit too dense for my liking. I think I'll try using less flour next time.

These dumplings were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more salt and pepper next time.
