LIVER DUMPLINGS



Liver Dumplings image

My mother used to make this wonderful dumpling served in broth. German in origin, this dish tastes so much better than it looks. You will be going back for seconds and thirds. My mother would grind the liver in her own meat grinder. I never had one, but if I caught the butcher at the supermarket in a good mood he would do it for me.

Provided by Barbara

Number Of Ingredients 12

500 - 700 g liver (veal is best)
1 onion
1 small piece butter
2 rolls from the day before
250 ml warm milk
1 egg
250 g bread crumbs
some parsley, cut
some marjoram, cut if fresh
some salt (you really need to be generous here)
some pepper
some nutmeg (optional)

Steps:

  • Cut the onion in cubes and fry them in a little bit of butter.
  • Set the fried onions aside.
  • Now cut the rolls into small cubes.
  • Put the bread cubes into a different bowl and then pour some of the milk over it, mix well, so they all get a little soaked but not too wet.
  • With a sharp knife, cut or scratch the liver into tiny pieces, as seen in the video. If you have a kitchen aid, just cut it into large pieces and use the machine to cut it.
  • Now add the fried onion cubes, the bread cubes, the egg, herbs, salt and pepper to it and mix well.
  • Put into the fridge for 1 hour.
  • Bring a large cooking pot with salt water to a boil and reduce heat to a simmer.
  • Shape small dumplings (about the size of a plum) and carefully set them into the water.
  • When the dumplings start floating to the top, wait 10 minutes for the dumplings to simmer in the water.
  • Take the dumplings out and add them to a plate with hot beef broth. Add some cooked vegetables or fresh herbs for a richer taste.

CALF'S-LIVER DUMPLINGS WITH CHIANTI ONION SOUP

Provided by Amanda Hesser

Categories     dinner, soups and stews, appetizer

Time 1h45m

Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 25

4 tablespoons lard or butter
5 medium red onions, thinly sliced
5 medium white onions, thinly sliced
6 cloves garlic, sliced
2 cups Chianti
1 star anise
1 3-inch cinnamon stick
7 juniper berries
3 quarts chicken broth
Kosher salt
freshly ground pepper
3 ounces fresh crusty bread, cubed
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon lard or butter
1/2 white onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon slivered garlic (about 3 cloves)
1/2 tablespoon finely chopped thyme leaves
3 sage leaves, finely chopped
1 1/2 tablespoons Chianti
1 pound calf's liver, peeled, deveined and cut into large cubes
2 egg yolks
1/2 cup dry bread crumbs
1 tablespoon flour
1/3 cup minced chives
Extra-virgin olive oil, for serving

Steps:

  • Prepare the soup: In a large, heavy saucepan, melt the lard over medium-high heat. Add the onions and garlic and cook, adjusting the heat as needed, until caramelized, 40 to 60 minutes. Add the wine and reduce to a glaze. Meanwhile, fill a piece of cheesecloth with the star anise, cinnamon and juniper and tie into a bundle; add this and the chicken broth to the onions. Simmer about 20 minutes. Remove the spice bundle. Season to taste with salt and pepper and set aside.
  • Make the dumplings: In a bowl, soak the bread in the heavy cream. In a medium sauté pan, melt the lard over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, thyme and sage and cook until the onions are translucent. Add the wine and let it boil off. Let cool.
  • Bring a small saucepan of lightly salted water to a simmer. In a food processor, blend the onion mixture, liver, egg yolks and soaked bread until a paste forms. Transfer to a large bowl and stir in the bread crumbs and flour, seasoning with salt and pepper.
  • Using 2 soup spoons dipped in cold water, form an oval dumpling of the liver mixture. Test it by dropping the dumpling into the simmering water and cooking for 5 minutes. Lift from the water, slice in half and taste for seasoning and doneness. (It should be barely pink in the middle.)
  • Bring the onion soup to a gentle simmer. Continue forming dumplings with the liver mixture. Simmer them in the soup; you may need to do this in batches. Divide the soup among 8 bowls with 4 to 5 dumplings in each, then top with chives and a little olive oil.
