Herb Dumplings
Some recipes taste like coming home.
Our herb dumplings are a warm hello from South Tyrol’s kitchen – simple, honest, and full of fragrant charm. They take a little time and a lot of love – and they taste best when the mountains stand outside your door or your mind finally finds stillness inside.
Want to try them at home? Here’s our recipe from the Cyprianerhof kitchen – earthy, soulful, and packed with flavour.
Ingredients
-
60 g finely chopped onion
-
200 g fresh herbs of your choice (spinach, parsley, chives…)
-
2 tbsp butter
-
2 eggs
-
50 ml milk
-
30 g cheese cubes (Alpine-style cheese works best)
-
1 tbsp flour
-
150 g white bread, cubed
-
1 garlic clove
-
A pinch of nutmeg
-
Salt & freshly ground pepper
-
30 g freshly grated Parmesan
-
70 g browned butter
Preparation
Gently sauté the chopped onion in butter until translucent. Add the finely chopped herbs and season with salt, pepper and a touch of nutmeg.
Blend the herby mixture together with the eggs until smooth.
In a large bowl, combine the bread cubes with the blended herbs, milk, cheese cubes, flour, salt and pepper. Mix well and let it rest, covered, for 15 minutes.
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. With wet hands, shape the mixture into dumplings.
Simmer gently for 15–20 minutes.
Serve hot with grated Parmesan and nutty browned butter. A taste of the mountains, right at y
our table.
