Karlovy Vary dumplings are a great alternative to classic yeast dumplings. This recipe, inspired by chef Pohlreich, is simple and ready in no time. They are ideal as a side dish to sauces, goulashes, or braised cabbage, but they also taste great on their own.

For 4 serving

Ingredients

250 g stale bread
250 ml milk
2 egg yolks
salt (to taste)
a pinch of nutmeg
20 g butter
40–50 g coarse flour
meringue beaten from two egg whites

My improvement:

Good bacon (finely chopped)

Preparation procedure

Preparing the bread: Cut the stale bread into cubes and pour over with the egg yolks mixed with milk.
Mixing the mixture: Add salt, a pinch of nutmeg, and the coarse flour. Mix thoroughly so that all the ingredients combine.
Adding the beaten egg whites: Finally, gently fold in the beaten egg whites. Fold the egg whites into the mixture carefully to achieve a fluffy dough.
Shaping the dumplings: Dampen your hands and form balls from the dough. Cook the dumplings in boiling water for about 15 minutes.

Karlovy Vary dumplings are quick to prepare and taste great. Try them as a side dish to your favorite sauces or goulashes, and enjoy their delicious flavor!
