| TINY DUMPLINGS |
| 4-6 servings 2 eggs, slightly beaten 1 cup water 1 teaspoon salt 3 cups flour Combine eggs, water, salt, and flour. Beat until dough is thick and smooth. Add more flour if necessary. In a large saucepan, bring 2-3 quarts of salted water to a boil. Place 1/3 of the dough on a small, wet chopping board. With a small sharp knife, cut thin strips( 3/4" x 2 1/2" ) one at a time, slipping off the board directly into boiling water. Repeat until all dough is used. Do not crowd in boiling water. Dumplings are done when they float. Remove from boiling water; rinse with hot water and keep warm. Serve with meat and gravy. |
