Bread Dumplings (Houskove Knedliky)



2 Whole Eggs
1/2 Cup Milk
1 Teaspoon Salt
3 Cups All-Purpose Flour
1 Pinch Baking Powder
4 Slices White Bread




Directions
1. Combine the flour, baking powder and salt.
2. Beat eggs & milk in a large mixing bowl; add flour mixture gradually.
3. Continue beating, the dough must be smooth & stiff enough to hold its shape.
4. Stir in bread cubes last.
5. Have a clean, wet towel ready.
6. Shape the dough with wet hands into an oblong, roll in a towel, tie ends & drop into a large kettle of salted simmering water for 45 minutes, covered.
7. Remove the towel & slice the dumpling 1/2 inch thick (if not sliced immediately, the steam cannot escape & the dumplings will be soggy & hard).
8. Keep hot until ready to serve.
