Directions:
-
Prepare Potatoes:
- Start by peeling the raw potatoes and finely grating them.

Remove Excess Liquid:
- Place the grated potatoes in a bowl and press down on them, tipping the bowl to pour off as much liquid as possible.

-
Boil the Dumplings:
- Bring a pot of water to a gentle boil.
- Using a tablespoon, drop portions of the dough into the boiling water.
-
Cook Until Floating:
- Boil the dumplings gently, uncovered, until they float to the surface. This usually takes about 15-20 minutes.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Once cooked, serve the dumplings hot.
- Optionally, top them with caramelized onions sautΓ©ed in butter or enjoy them with sauerkraut for an authentic German taste.
-
Optional Addition:
- For added flavor, consider incorporating grated onion into the dumpling dough. Add about a tablespoon of grated onion to the mixture before forming the dough.
-
Leftover Delight:
- Don’t let any leftovers go to waste! Sliced dumplings can be fried in butter until golden brown for a delicious snack or side dish.
