Hungarian Ish Dumpling And Egg Noodle Soup Recipes

HUNGARIAN NOKEDLI (DUMPLINGS)

Steps:

• Place large pot filled with salted water and bring to boil.
• Combine eggs, salt, and water, beating well with whisk.
• Add flour, a little at a time.
• Add only enough flour to make a soft, sticky dough.
• Let mixture rest for about 10 mins.
• Beat mixture again.
• Using the side of a teaspoon, spoon small amount of dough into boiling water.
• Dipping the spoon in the hot water will remove the dough from the spoon (if you have a spaetzel maker, that makes is easier as you want very small noodles).
• The noodles are done when they float to the top.
• Remove from water with large slotted spoon, and place in colander.
• Rinse with cold water.
• You may want to make the dumplings in 2 or 3 batches so they dont overcook.
• Serve with chicken paprikas.
• The dumplings are also nice added to a stew.
• You can heat the dumplings in a frying pan with melted butter.
• Do not let the dumplings get too brown or crisp.
