How to cook soup with dumplings?
  • First, take a look at a simple universal recipe for potato soup with dumplings, which will surely appeal to many fans of Russian cuisine. You may remember a taste forgotten from childhood, and it is very likely that you will like the recipe much more now:

Ingredients:

For the Dough:

  • 1 egg

  • 5 Tablespoons flour

  • 1 Tablespoon butter

  • 150 ml of milk

  • pinch of salt

Instructions:
  1. Directly for the soup, you can take the well-known products from the classic recipe or, in the described version, 0.5 kg of chicken meat (soup is also possible), 3-4 pieces, potatoes, 1 pc. carrot, 1 pc. onion, a small amount of vegetable oil, ground black pepper, as well as 1 bay leaf, salt and a bunch of fresh herbs.

  2. First, you need to prepare the dough for the dumplings. In a deep plate or bowl, lightly beat 1 hen's egg, add salt and mix with 150 g of milk. Melt the butter and whisk in the resulting mixture of eggs and milk. Add the flour gradually, kneading the dough and removing lumps. When the dough becomes homogeneous, a little thicker than for pancakes, leave it for now and take care of the soup.

  3. Almost every housewife knows how to cook potato soup. Let's stop at the general recommendations: cook soup - cook chicken over low heat, stirring and removing the foam. Peel an onion and a carrot, chop them and fry them in vegetable oil.

  4. Peel the potatoes, cut into strips or medium cubes and place in a pan with chicken soup. Separate the cooked chicken from the bones and return to the pot. Add fried onions and carrots, bay leaf, black pepper, and cook the soup over low heat for about 15-20 minutes.

  5. So we come to the most important thing in our recipe, and that is the preparation of dumplings for soup from previously prepared dough. Why should you wet 2 teaspoons with cold water and take them in both hands. Grab a little of the dough with one spoon, and carefully separate it with the other hand and pour it into the pot with a little boiling broth.

  6. Similarly, form and dip cooked dumplings in the soup. If there are too many, leave them to your own devices. It should be borne in mind that during cooking, when the soup boils, the dumplings will increase slightly.

  7. To determine the readiness of the dumplings, pay attention to the appearance and the way they behave: the finished dumplings will become dull, turn white and float to the surface of the soup. This will take about 5 minutes. While this is happening, it is necessary to cut the greens washed with cold water, sprinkle it with ready-made soup with dumplings, then cover and leave to cool a bit. Let the soup cook well, and you can serve it on the table.

  8. After the soup is cooked, it is advisable to eat it the same or the next day. Otherwise, the dough may swell or stick too much, so it won’t be as tasty anymore. If you do not have a large family, cook dumpling soup in small quantities. It is better to cook less, but more often. And next time, allow yourself to cook soup dumplings using other cooking options. See them below.

  9. Dumplings or dumplings are made from semolina. You can cook them to add to soup, as well as a separate dish.

Grit dumplings have a high nutritional value and are great for breakfast, as well as a side dish for another dish:

  1. For 200 ml of milk or water, it is enough to take 200 g of semolina, a couple of tablespoons of butter, half a pinch of salt and a little sugar to your taste (of course, you can do without it).

  2. Cook semolina of thick consistency, using milk or water, add salt and sugar during cooking.

  3. Dip small pieces of dough in boiling soup or water, try to be the same size. This can be done by taking two teaspoons or a tablespoon. It will also be convenient to use a special round-shaped spoon, which is often used for ice cream scoops.

  4. After approximately 6-7 minutes, after the dumplings are ready, it is necessary to remove the dish with the dish from the fire and serve dinner at the table.

  5. As already mentioned, it is necessary to make dumplings of small sizes for even cooking and so that they disintegrate in water (milk).

  6. For serving, I also use the way to take the dumplings out of the pan, put them in a strainer until the liquid drains out, and then transfer them to a serving bowl with sauce (sour cream).

The potato dumplings in the first dish are as delicious as they are.

  1. However, they are not prepared for potato soup, but for adding to cereal soups, for example, buckwheat or pearl barley soups, and in addition, they go well with various types of meat (pork, beef, lamb, etc.), buy with potato dumplings and your special taste:

  2. To prepare a dumpling for a medium pot of soup, you need about 250-300 g of raw potatoes, 1 egg, 0.5 Tbsp, small pretzels, 2 Tbsp flour, salt and nutmeg.

  3. Whole potatoes can be cooked, peeled or in uniform. Stretch the boiled potatoes into the purée, add salt, season with nutmeg, beat 1 egg and mix well.

  4. Knead the potato dough, gradually adding bread crumbs and mixing. If the potato dough is not elastic enough, you can add a little flour.

  5. Wet your hands and shape the same small pieces of dough and dip them in boiling soup that is almost ready (you can also use two spoons for that). After a few minutes, after the dumplings float to the surface, remove the pot from the heat.

  6. Potato dumplings can be made by kneading chopped fried mushrooms. A longer-lasting option is to put mushrooms in each dumpling, shaping it with wet hands, you can also put chopped greens mixed with nutmeg.

How to cook dumplings with cheese for soup?
  1. Cheese dumplings can be added to almost all soups, or just for soups - dumplings are very light and rich in flavor, so they work without other ingredients:

  2. Take a chicken egg, 50-60 g of hard cheese and 3 Tbsp flour, a pinch of salt and black pepper. When using already salted cheese, it is necessary to reduce the amount of added salt.

  3. Lightly whisk the egg with the salt. Then add pepper and whisk again.

  4. Grate the cheese on a fine or medium grater and add to the beaten egg.

  5. Mix the cheese mass and add the flour, knead the dough to a thick consistency.

  6. The dough is quite sticky, carefully put them in the soup, well moisten your hands or spoons for shaping with cold water.

  7. The taste of cheese dumplings differs from traditional ones in color and taste. The nuance of the dumplings can be further improved by adding a teaspoon of curry spices to the resulting cheese dough, as well as red ground pepper.

  8. In summary, it should be noted that there are several recipes for soup dumplings, for a variety of flavors.
