This is a nice textured dumpling, very easy to work with. I cooked them a little differently - First I put them in boiling water until they floated(uncovered) apprx 10 minutes then I transferred them to the Rouladen gravy and finished cooking them, covered (another 12 minutes). I made them larger than the recipe suggests and served them with Sauerkraut & Rouladen - A wonderfujl comfort food dinner

I had trouble getting the dumplings done, but I think that was a cook error and not this recipe. I have yet to make a good dumpling.
