Experience the comforting taste of traditional Czech cuisine with these delightful bread dumplings. A perfect side dish for rich stews and roasted meats, Houskový Knedlíky are a staple in Czech kitchens.

Ingredients

🌾 2 cups Wondra Flour
🧂 1 tablespoon baking powder
🥚 1 large egg
🥛 1 cup milk


Instructions

1- Prepare the Dough:

  • Place 2 cups of Wondra flour into the mixing bowl of a KitchenAid stand mixer.
  • Add 1 tablespoon of baking powder to the flour.
  • Crack 1 large egg into the bowl with the dry ingredients.
  • Pour 1 cup of milk into the mixture.

2- Mix Ingredients:

  • Attach the bowl and dough hook to the stand mixer.
  • Mix on medium speed until a cohesive dough forms. The dough should be smooth and elastic.

3- Shape the Dumplings:

  • Remove the dough from the mixer.
  • On a black cutting board, manually knead and shape the dough into two cylindrical logs.

4- Boil the Dumplings:

  • Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil.
  • Carefully place the two dough logs into the boiling water.
  • Boil for 20 minutes, turning them over halfway through using a wooden spoon to ensure even cooking.

5- Slice and Serve:

  • Once cooked, remove the dumplings from the water.
  • Using tongs to hold each dumpling, slice them into thick, round pieces with a knife.
  • Serve the dumplings warm, ideally alongside a rich goulash or the traditional dish of pork, sauerkraut, and dumplings.
