Potato dumplings can be found in various forms throughout the world, everything from Gnocchi in Italy and Kluski Śląskie in Poland, to Bramborové Knedlíky in the Czech Republic and Cepelinai in Lithuania. But however they may different from one country to the next, most potato dumplings are meant to be served with a sauce as the primary starch in a meal. With their tender texture and capacity for mopping up juices, they are so perfectly suited for this role. Today I’m sharing Germany’s famous potato dumpling recipe with you, called Kartoffelklösse or Kartoffelknödel (depending on the region), made the way my Mutti and Oma made them. Made from cooked riced potatoes, eggs, potato flour, and salt and formed into balls that are gently boiled, these dumplings are soft and tender and make the perfect accompaniment to your meat-and-gravy dishes or vegetarian sauce-based dishes.
