Houskove Knedliky - Czechoslovakian Bread Dumplings image

Posted in response to a recipe request. These hearty, dense dumplings are just wonderful served in melted real butter or with brown gravy. A variation might include stuffing them with minced mushrooms and onions sautéed in butter before boiling or forming them into balls instead of cylinders.

Time 35m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 cups water
2 teaspoons salt
6 slices white bread, slightly stale (crusts trimmed and cut into 1/2-inch cubes)
4 tablespoons butter
1 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
2 egg yolks, beaten
2 tablespoons green onions, minced
1 tablespoon parsley, minced
1/8 teaspoon pepper
1/2 cup milk (more as needed)

Steps:

  • Place water and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in a stockpot and bring to a rolling boil.
  • Melt the butter in a large sauté pan or skillet; toast bread cubes until golden.
  • Remove from heat and reserve.
  • Add the remaining ingredients together in a bowl.
  • Fold cooled bread cubes into the dumpling batter.
  • Shape dumplings into 1 1/2" by 3" cylinders and gently drop into boiling water (this works better if hands are slightly moistened).
  • Reduce heat to a low simmer; cover and cook 20 minutes (turn dumplings over at ten minutes).
  • Remove from pot with slotted spoon and drain.
  • Slice into 1/2" thick disks with a knife and serve immediately.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my dumplings turned out really dry. I'll have to try this recipe again.
