It piqued my interest. :) I assume you're talking about the list of Czech recipes that I posted, although I don't know if you mean the Polevka S Jaternimi Knedliky (soup with liver dumplings) or the Svestkove Knedliky (Plum Dumplings), or the Knedliky S Visnove (Cherry Dumplings). So, I'll post them all... Polevka S Jaternimi Knedliky (Soup with Liver Dumplings) 1/2 lb. beef liver, ground 2 Tbsp. butter or beef marrow 1/2 garlic clove 1/2 tsp. grated lemon rind Dash each of ground marjoram and mace 2 eggs 1 c. fine dry bread crumbs 2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour 1 tsp. salt 1/4 tsp. pepper 2 quarts consomme Cream ground beef liver with butter, garlic, lemon rind, marjoram, and mace. Beat in eggs. Beat in bread crumbs, flour, salt, and pepper. Let stand at room tempurature for about 1 hour. Shape into balls the size of golf balls. Bring consomme to a boil. Drop in liver dumplings. Cover and lower heat. Simmer for 10 minutes. Makes 6 servings. Svestkove Knedliky (Plum Dumplings) Butter 2 eggs 1/4 tsp. salt 2 c. sifted all-purpose flour 2 c. boiled potatoes, riced 12 to 15 plums, pitted 12 to 15 blanched almonds 1/4 c. cinnamon sugar 1 c. fine bread crumbs Cream 2 Tbsp. butter until soft. Beat in eggs and salt. Gradually beat in flour and riced potatoes, beating well after each addition. Dough should be stiff enough to knead thoroughly. On floured board roll out dough to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into 3-inch squares. Stuff each plum with 1 almond. Lay 1 plum on each square of dough. Sprinkle with a little cinnamon sugar. Fold dough edges over plum, encasing it completely. Shape with hands into a ball. Drop dumplings into gently boiling salted water. Simmer, covered, for about 10 minutes. Test for doneness by removing 1 dumpling and tearing it apart. Remove dumplings. Brown bread crumbs in 1/3 c. hot butter. Roll dumplings in buttered bread crumbs. Sprinkle with cinnamon sugar. Makes 6 servings. Knedliky S Visnove (Cherry Dumplings) 2 1/4 c. about (one 1-lb., 4-oz. can) pitted red sour cherries 3/4 c. sugar Dumpling batter Put undrained cherries and sugar in deep skillet and bring to boil. Drop dumpling batter into boiling fruit from a tablespoon to make 4 to 6 dumplings. Cover and cook gently for 20 minutes. Serve at once. Dumpling Batter 1 c. sifted cake flour 1/4 c. sugar 1 tsp. baking powder 1/4 tsp. salt Grated rind of 1 orange 1/3 c. milk 2 tsp. melted margarine Sift dry ingredients into bowl. Add remaining ingredients, mixing quickly and lightly until blended; do not mix smooth. Hope I sent you the right one. ---
