Instructions:
-
Prepare the Dough:
- Sift the flour into a large mixing bowl, then add sugar and crumbled yeast.
- Pour in 1/2 cup of lukewarm milk and mix until combined.
- Allow the mixture to rest until the yeast becomes frothy and starts bubbling up.

-
Mix and Knead:
- To the yeast mixture, add 1 tablespoon of salt, the whole egg, and the egg yolk.
- Begin kneading the dough until it becomes smooth and elastic, ensuring all ingredients are well incorporated.
-
Let the Dough Rise:
- Cover the bowl with a clean kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free place until it doubles in size. This may take about an hour, depending on the room temperature.
-
Form the Dumplings:
- Once the dough has risen, gently punch it down to release the air.
- Divide the dough into portions, shaping each into dumplings about the size of large oranges.
-
Cook the Dumplings:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Carefully drop the dumplings into the boiling water, ensuring they have enough space to expand.
- Reduce the heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook the dumplings for 10 minutes.
-
Flip and Cook Further:
- After 10 minutes, carefully turn the dumplings over using a slotted spoon to ensure even cooking.
- Continue cooking for another 10 minutes, or until the dumplings are cooked through and tender.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Once cooked, remove the dumplings from the water and drain them briefly on a clean kitchen towel to remove excess moisture.
- To serve, cut the raised dumplings into slices using a string for clean, even cuts.
- Serve hot alongside your favorite hearty stew or savory sauce, and enjoy the authentic flavors of Czech cuisine!
