    Source of Recipe

    from wwr

    Recipe Introduction

    The Pennsylvania Dutch have dozens of traditional soups, many of which are often served as a main course or one-dish meal. The butterballs are actually small dumplings and are often added to many other soups as well. Pennsylvania Dutch - Vegetable Soup w/Butter Balls

    for the soup:
    8 cups (2 L) beef or chicken stock
    4 medium potatoes, peeled and diced
    2 carrots, diced
    2 turnips, peeled and diced
    2 tomatoes, diced
    1 cup (250 ml) fresh, canned, or frozen corn kernels
    1/2 cup (125 ml) uncooked rice
    Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

    for the butterballs:
    6 Tbs (90 ml) all-purpose flour
    2 tsp (10 ml) butter
    Salt to taste
    water

    Combine the soup ingredients. Bring to a simmer over high heat.
    Reduce the heat, cover and simmer until the vegetables and
    rice are tender, 20 to 30 minutes.
    Mix the butterballs ingredients, with enough water to make a
    stiff paste. Roll into small balls and boil in the soup for 5
    minutes before serving.
    Makes 6 to 8 servings.
