when I have the family over for Borscht, making these dumplings are a must!!
DAMPFNUDELN
(German Yeast Dumplings)
1 lb. flour
6 tablespoons sugar
pinch of salt
1 package yeast
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 cup milk
3 tablespoon milk
1 stick butter
4 eggs
water
oil
Mix all the ingredients and knead into a smooth dough. Set aside in a warm place and let rise for about an hour. Form flat dumplings the size of a coffee cup and let rise for another 1/2 hour. Heat 2 tablespoons butter, 1 tablespoon oil, 1 cup of water, and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a skillet with a lid. (If you prefer a sweet crust, add sugar instead of salt.) Set the dumplings in the skillet, cover with the lid, and let bake for about 15 to 20 minutes. Do not open the lid until the dumplings are done.
you will know they are done when you hear them frying and it sounds like there is no steam in the pan. they smell wonderful. I always let them set for a minute before taking the lid off very slowly.

I think a good loaf of crusty bread and some cheese would be nice, and maybe a salad to start. When I make borscht, I use Brisket or Flanken and let it simmer for a long, long time. It's also really good topped w/ a spoonful of sour cream and a little fresh chopped dill.
