If you are serving a pork roast with sauerkraut, I recommend bread dumplings.

Ingredients
  • 1 pk yeast
  • 1 ts sugar
  • 1/2 c milk; scalded and cooled
  • 1 c milk; warm
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 ts salt
  • 3 1/2 c flour
  • 3 slices white bread; cubed

Directions
  1. Mix the first three ingredients, let
  2. stand for 10 minutes. Mix the warm milk, egg, salt, yeast mixture and
  3. flour. Add the bread cubes. Knead the resulting dough just as you
  4. would when making bread. Let the dough rest in a warm place to rise.
  5. It should double in about 2 hours. Knead again; divide into 3 long
  6. rolls, each about 1 1/2 " thick. Let rise another 1/2 hour. Drop the
  7. rolls of dough, one at a time, into a large kettle of boiling water.
  8. Boil gently for about 15 minutes. Remove with slotted spoons and
  9. place on a buttered platter. Keep warm. When ready to serve, slice
  10. the rolls into individual slices by using a length of thread. Loop it
  11. around one dumpling and pull tight to slice off a piece about 2"
  12. thick. (This is the fun part! You can get pretty good at this
  13. garrotting if you practice!!) You should end up with about 2 dozen
  14. slices. The cookbook says, "These freeze well - steam before serving."

These sound good.


Mmmmmm... I have never made dumplings this way but I'll admit, they do look good! Thank you for sharing your version of dumplings! I am anxious to try them.


I just saw these on tv and am going to try them tonight


I tried this recipe several days ago, and I was very pleased. They were fluffy and tasty. Also they took a little time but well worth it. I did mine with some whole wheat flour and they turned out great. I will be making them again.


Oh yeah...this is exactly how my Czech friends make dumplings...I like them hard, but I also like them this way...very nice...thanks for the reminder...will make them this weekend.


I LOVE Czech dumplings! Thanks so much for this recipe.


I made this recipe. They turned out good except they didn't look like the picture. The dough was quite sticky and the rolls were lumpy and sagged in the second rise. Should I have added more flour? They sure are tasty.
