Bavarian Bread Dumplings Recipe


Bavarian Bread Dumplings Recipe
This economical dish using stale rolls is delicious served with pork roast and gravy. Chicken is good also. They also freeze well uncooked. Make sure dumplings are not too moist but will hold their shape.

Ingredients
  • 8 stale hard crusted rolls
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 cups lukewarm milk

  • 1 tbsp minced parsley
  • 1 tsp marjoram
  • 2 eggs

Directions
  1. Cut rolls with crust into thin slices, put in a bowl and sprinkle with salt. Pour some of the lukewarm milk over bread and let soak for one hour. (Put only enough milk to make bread moist, not soaking).
  2. Fry bacon in skillet with chopped onion until bacon is almost crisp and onions are soft and golden. Toss in parsley and marjoram and saute for for 3 minutes. Add onion and herbs to bread mixture. Mix in eggs thoroughly. With wet hands, form round dumplings. Drop into boiling salted water and simmer, partially covered, for 20 minutes.

These sound delicious! I often have stale rolls (and baguettes, that would work too, wouldn't it?) How do you serve these? I was thinking pork chops with a thin gravy and the dumplings on the side to soak up gravy. Would that work? What do you do?


Welcome, yes you can use baguettes but if there is too much crust, the dumplings are not as good. I serve them just as you suggested, with pork and gravy. If you have any left over dumplings, they are really good fried in some butter for lunch. I'm retired but do the odd contract job, but what I really like to do is travel; we've been to Mexico too many times to count we also RV in Canada and the U.S.


I like this recipe...I make marrow balls and egg balls for beef and chicken soups. Could you poached these in soup?
