Tyrolean Bacon-Dumpling Soup (Speckknodelsuppe)
This is an adaptation of a dish served at the Signaterhof in the town of Signat. I have yet to try it, but it’s screaming the “make me” chant from the pages of my newest Saveur magazine. (Oct. 06)
Sabine’s Farina Dumplings
I think I’ve tried every dumpling recipe on RecipeZaar in an effort to duplicate my friend’s soup. Yesterday, I “caught” her making them for her boys. Maybe the one-on-one lesson did the trick. Here is her “recipe”
Apricot Dumplings (Marillenknödel)
Posted for the Zaar World Tour-Austria. From the “Best of International Cooking” cookbook. I haven’t tried this recipe yet.
Minty Cheese Filled Pasta (Kärntner Kasnudel)
Another traditional dish from Austria, which is rather easy to make, even though a bit time consuming, but the effort is absolutely worth it. You can find this dish mainly in the south of Austria (I like to think it is a bit Italian-influenced) and sometimes it is the only vegetarian food (apart from salad) to find on a menu (countryside pubs and restaurants). Lucky me,that it is one of my favourites. This dish usually comes with fountains of melted, browned butter, you can either induldge or adjust, e.g. limit, the amount to your preferences :).
Serviettenknödel (Bread Dumplings)
Very nice side to goulash and roasts. If dough appears to be too thin, add bread cubes. For bread dumplings add 50g flour to dough and form medium sized dumplings and let simmer for 20 minutes in mildly cooking water.
