Serves 6-8
3 hard dinner rolls
Butter
2 cups flour
2 eggs
1 teaspoon baking powder
Salt
Milk
3 to 4 quarts water
Cut the rolls into small dice and sauté in butter
until crisp but not browned.
Mix the flour, eggs, butter, baking powder, salt, and enough
milk to make a medium dough.
Blend together thoroughly.
Fold in the
sautéed, diced rolls.
Bring 3 to 4 quarts water to a boil and add 1 tablespoon salt.
Drop the dumplings into the boiling water a tablespoonful at a
time.
When they come to the surface, taste one.
If done, remove the
dumplings from the water with a slotted spoon.
Dot with melted
butter and place in a warm oven to heat through.
If you want them
crisp, turn the oven to 400 degrees F and let them brown slightly,
but do not let them dry out.
