[Sca-cooks] Chard and cheese dumplings

[Cat .]

Um almost correct, but the corrections will make a BIG
difference.
first" nicht gro?/ sondern klein/"
means Not large/ BUT small

next the really important one:
"und schaw/ da? du sie nit
 zerwirffst/ la? sie gar gemach sieden/ da? sie nicht
voneinander fahren/..."

should be: see/ that you dont break them/ let them
simmer gently/ they they do not fall appart
(technically it is that they not frome one-another
drive)

If you boil them hard the dough will separate from the
filling and you will have tatters in
cloudy/fillingmushy broth. (ask how I know ;-)

thinking they sound rather tasty

Welserin 70. ...That is made like so: take two eggs
and beat them.
 Afterwards stir flour therein until it becomes a
thick dough. Pour it on
 the table and work it well, until it is ready....

Rumpolt Vom Kalb  14.  ...nimm Mehl/ und thu darunter
drei oder vier
 Eier/ und ein wenig Salz/ und mach ein Teig darau?/
und mach jhn fest/
 da? du jn kanst mit einem Walger au?treiben/ schlag
die F?ll darein/ und
 mach Krapfen darau?/ nicht gro?/ sondern klein/ und
wann du es gemacht
 hast/ so schneidt es mit einem R?dtlein ab/ Nimm in
einem saubern
 uberzinten Fischkessel ein gute Rindtfleischbr?he/
oder ein Hennenbr?he /
 die nicht versalzen ist/ wann sie sehr gesalzen ist/
so nimm Wasser
 darunter/ setz es auf Kolen mit dem Kessel/ und wenn
die Br?he seudt/ so
 wirf ein Krapfen nach dem andern hinein/ und schaw/
da? du sie nit
 zerwirffst/ la? sie gar gemach sieden/ da? sie nicht
voneinander fahren/...

Take flour/ and put into it three or four eggs/ and a
little salt/ and
 make a dough from it/ and make it firm/ that you can
drive (roll) it
 out with a roller/ wrap the filling in it/ and make
krapfen from it/ not
 big or small/ and when you have made them/ then cut
them up with a
 roller take in a clean tinned fish kettle a good beef
broth/ or a chicken
 broth/ that is not oversalted/ When it is oversalted/
then add water/
 set on the coals with the kettle/ and when the broth
boils/ then throw
 the krapfen in one after another/ and look that you
dont drop them too
 hard/ let it come completely to a boil/ that they
don't stick together.

24. ... und mach jhn nicht gar zu dick/ da? du es
kanst gar d?nn
 au?treiben/ wie ein sch?nes d?nnes Papier/ je d?nners
ist/
... and make it not too thick/ that you can roll it
completely thin/
 like a fair thin paper/  it is so thin...

Both these are meat filled and served in the broth.
