Rohe Kartoffelkloesse
Serves 10
Raw potato dumplings. A favorite for anyone who has eaten authentic German food! Smother with gravy, place in your favorite chicken soup, slice and fry in your bacon grease the next morning! Nummy!
Ingredients
  1. 1 Russet potato (cooked and mashed)
  2. 6 medium Russet raw potatoes (2 lbs.)
  3. 2 pieces toasted bread (cubed)
  4. 1 beaten egg
  5. 1 teaspoon salt
  6. ¾ cup flour (more as needed)
  7. 1 large pot boiling water
  8. 1 large bowl of cold water and lemon juice (enough water to cover the grated potatoes – the acid in the lemon juice will prevent them from browning)

Instructions
  1. Cook, peel and mash one potato.
  2. Prepare everything else before peeling the 6 potatoes and have water on to boil.
  3. Peel then grate (using the smallest size on the grater) the 6 potatoes into a large bowl of water and lemon juice.
  4. Place the grated potatoes in cheesecloth and squeeze out all the water.
  5. In a large bowl, mix the raw potatoes with the mashed potato, salt, egg and flour.
  6. Knead dough until you can easily shape into 2 to 3 inch dumplings.
  7. Place 2 to 3 cubes of toasted bread in the center of each dumpling while molding but only mold one dumpling to start with.
  8. Place the one dumpling in rapidly boiling water; if it disintegrates, you’ll need to add more flour in the dough.
  9. Create and boil the dumplings until they rise to the top of the boiling water then boil for an additional 10 minutes.
