ZWETSCHGENKNOEDEL made out of Karen's fresh Harvest Italian Plum from Chilliwack, BC

Zwetchgenknoedel or translated into Plum dumplings is a original and authentic recipe from my mother who comes from old Bavaria...




These dumplings are made from potatoes and they are easy and quick to make. My sister and I loved to eat them with plum sauce or vanillia sauce or just with sugar and cinnamon...


Here are the ingredients:

300 g boiled potatoes

125 g spelt flour or if you like all-purpose flour

20 g butter

1 egg

Plums

and very important you need this kitchen tool: Food press



Let's cook!

Part 1:

Cook the potatoes until the through...Let them cool off for about 5 mins before using your food press.


Part 2:

Add your egg, spelt flour and a pinch of salt and mix it well until it becomes a dough.



There you go....



Part 3:

Divide your dough and weight about 74 g each dumpling and fill it with half of Italian plum...just like this....


then roll it to a ball and add all your dumplings in boiling water for about 10 mins.

Voila....DONE!


I served mine with cinnamon sugar or make a nice plum sauce and have them bath in it.....

Delicious to the TASTE!
