List of Ingredients
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup milk
2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 slices white bread, toasted and cubed
Recipe
Mix eggs and milk and set aside. Sift together flour, baking powder, and salt. Place sifted dry ingredients in a large wooden bowl. Make a well in dry ingredients and add milk and egg mixture. Stir. Note: (When mixing dough, use wooden spoon, not mixer. Dumplings will flop if you do.) Add bread cubes. Stir. Dough will be sticky. With floured hands, shape dough into 2 loaves, about 5-1/2 inches long. Cover with a large bowl and let rest for 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, fill a large pot half full with water. Bring to a boil. Reshape dough with hands and drop into water. Boil, covered, for 12 minutes. Carefully turn dumplings and boil 12 minutes more. Using a large spatula, lift dumplings to a platter. Prick a few times to let steam escape. Cut into slices with sewing thread.
