3 pounds Potatoes

3 tablespoons Cornstarch
3 tablespoons Cream of Wheat
½ teaspoon Pepper
1½ teaspoon Salt
¼ teaspoon Nutmeg
1 cup White bread cubes; toasted or fried
Flour
large Pot of boiling water w 1 t. salt

Directions

Clean, peel, and boil potatoes just until soft enough to mash. Drain and mash smoothly. Add egg yolks, cornstarch, Cream or Wheat, pepper, salt, and nutmeg. Beat well; shape into dumplings; place few bread cubes in center of each. (It is a good idea to shape 1 dumpling first and proceed with recipe.

If it does not hold together while cooking, beat a little flour into dumpling mixture before shaping remainder.) Roll each dumpling lightly in flour. Cook in rapidly boiling salted water 15 to 20 minutes. Remove cooked dumplings from water; serve hot with Sauerbraten. Makes 12 or more dumplings.
