1898 Potato Dumplings

1898 Potato Dumplings


1. Set a large pot of salted water on to boil.

2. Mix all the ingredients together well, except the fat. You should have a soft but moldable dough; you may need to mix in a little more flour. Divide the dough into 4 equal parts.

3. Mold into flattish, rectangular cakes, about 2" thick.

4. Gently place the cakes in the boiling water and simmer for 1/2 hour.

5. Drain and let cool. It will fall apart if you try to slice it before it is cool.

6. Cut in 1/2" thick slices and fry in bacon or ham fat, over medium heat, until nicely browned, on both sides.
