Here in North Dakota we love Knoephla Soup! I was introduced to it by my DH and loved it ever since! We have a place called Kroll's Diner run by two older Norwegian ladies! They make it the best I have ever had! The are famous for saying SIT DOWN AND EAT! And we do! :) Ingredients:
4 cups water |
2 cups chicken broth |
1 large onion, diced |
1 stalk celery, diced |
2 cups potatoes, diced |
2 bay leaves |
2 chicken bouillon cubes |
1 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
1 cup cream |
3 cups flour |
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. In a big soup pot add water and broth, then add onion, celery, potatoes, bouillon cubes and spices. Boil until potatoes are done, about 12-15 minutes. Add cream and knoepfla. Simmer 30-40 minutes.
2. Knoephla Dough a German dumpling:.
3. Mix flour, salt, and baking powder together to make a fairly stiff dough. Add eough water to make the dough stiff - 3/4 cups or more depending on how much gluten is in your flour. You can use milk in place of the water - some here do.
4. Roll into 1/2 inch ropes and cut with a pair of scissors into 1/2 inch pieces right into the simmering soup.
5. This is a very hearty soup and wonderful on a cold day! Especially here in North Dakota! Brrrrr - So come in and Sit Down and Eat! .
