HOW TO MAKE POTATOE DUMPLINGS RECIPES

Steps:

• Peel 10-12 medium potatoes (about 7 cups).
• In a large bowl, shred potatoes. I have a 7 cup food processor and it makes the job really quick. Otherwise, a hand grater is all you need.
• In a separate small bowl -- mix the eggs and salt and pepper.
• Pour the egg mixture over the shredded potatoes and using your hands, mix well.
• Gradually add in the flour, again using your hands. This is very heavy and gooey and is usually too much work for your mixer or it's blades.
• Fill a large pot 3/4 full with water and bring to a boil.
• Using a generous amount of flour on your hands, scoop a handful of the potato mixture into your hands and form into a ball. Place each dumpling on a cookie sheet for an easy transfer to the boiling water. (Recipe makes 10-12 baseball sized dumplings.).
• Once water reaches a rolling boil, gently add each dumpling and continue to boil until the dumplings float.
• Remove the dumplings from the water using a slotted spoon or strainer spoon and place in serving dish. Best served hot with gravy or sauerkraut.
• Dumplings also make one of the best leftover breakfast items ever! Chop into bite sized pieces and saute with butter and garlic salt to put a crowd pleasing twist on traditional hashbrowns!

Steps:

• Combine Potato Buds & hot water.
• Add remaining ingredients in given order, mix well.
• Form into 2-inch balls with hands, flour hands occasionally so dough doesn't stick.
• Cook in boiling salted water until they rise to the top.
• Remove dumplings from water with a slotted spoon & place in butter casserole dish.
• Sprinkle with bread crumbs & keep layering melted butter, dumplings & crumbs.
• Cover with foil & bake at 325* for 5-10 minutes.
