Knoephla (neh-fla) are little dumplings that came to the Dakotas via German immigrants. Molly calls them the "best- kept secret in the upper Midwest!" She makes this dumpling soup for her daughter, Bernie - and it's always a hit!

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

3 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large onion, chopped
2 large carrots, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg
10 cups chicken or vegetable stock
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
2 sprigs dill, leaves chopped
4 sprigs parsley, leaves chopped
2 bay leaves
1 1/2 pounds red-skinned potatoes, chopped into 1/2-inch pieces
1/2 cup heavy cream
3 1/4 cups all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1/8 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1 cup water
1 large egg

Steps:

  • Make the soup: In a large pot, melt the butter over medium-high heat. Add the onion, carrots, celery, a good pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring often, until the vegetables soften, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and nutmeg and cook, stirring, 2 more minutes, or until fragrant. Stir in the stock, thyme, dill, parsley, bay leaves and potatoes; increase the heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover and cook 40 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • Meanwhile, begin making the knoephla when the soup reaches a boil: Whisk the flour, baking powder, 1 1/4 teaspoons salt, a few grinds of pepper and the nutmeg in a medium bowl. Stir in the water and egg and mix to form a shaggy dough. Turn it out onto a clean work surface and knead for a few minutes, adding more flour as needed, until you have a smooth and stiff dough.
  • Roll out the dough into a 1/2-inch-thick blob, then cut into 1/2- to 3/4-inch squares, dusting them with flour so they don't stick together. Drop them directly into the simmering soup for the last 20 minutes.
  • In the last few minutes of cooking, stir in the heavy cream. Taste and adjust the seasonings as desired. Remove the bay leaves before serving.

KNOEPHLA/KNEPFLA SOUP



Knoephla/Knepfla Soup image

This is a popular creamy chicken stock soup with diced potatoes, carrot, celery and onion with little dumplings dropped in after the veggies have just become tender. I actually submitted this recently to our work cafeteria's "Souper Bowl" competition and was picked to cook and serve it. good thing the head chef did the math - it turned out great at 12 gallons! My husband scored the recipe from a friend's wife who offered him a bowl when he was doing some handy-man work at their house. Lucky for me he never turns down a lunch offer - it yields me some tried and true recipes! I have added cubed/shredded cooked left-over chicken to make it even more hearty. You can also garnish with some crumbled cooked bacon bits. I feel that Yukon Gold potatoes work best. If you can eat just a cup, good for you - it'll last longer then. With us, big bowls are the only way!

GERMAN KNOEPHLE "NEFLA" SOUP



German Knoephle

Can't believe this one's not on here! The womens' group at my church serve this for suppers occasionally, and it's great! This is (I was told) a very traditional German soup. I've also seen it with rice instead of potatoes.
