Dampfnudeln(literally: steam noodles)
(a kind of sweet bread)
Another traditional dish in Southern Germany.
You'll need a large pot or a deep pan with a close fitting lid to make dampfnudeln. It should have a thick bottom and preferably a non-stick surface.
Ingredients (serves 3-5):
For the dough:
500 g flour
250 ml milk
40 g
fresh yeast (don't use dried yeast)
1 pinch of salt
1-2 eggs
For the pot:
150 g butter
150 g water
1 level teaspoon full of salt
Dissolve the yeast in a bit of
lukewarm milk. Put this in a hollow in the middle of the flour and
leave it to stand for 30 minutes.
Then add the rest of the milk, the eggs and the salt, knead the dough until it shows bubbles, cover it with a cloth and
leave it to stand in a warm place for about 1 hour.
Then take portions of the dough about the size of a fist, put them on a flat surface sprinkled with flour, cover them with a cloth and
leave them to stand again for about 15 minutes.
Melt the butter in the pan and add the same amount of warm salted water.
Put the dough pieces close together into the pan and close the lid well.
Let them
steam on a mild or
medium heat for about 25-30 minutes.
Very important:
Under no circumstances open the lid during this time to have a look at them!
Otherwise they will collaps!
They're ready when they have developed a crust at the bottom. When you can hear a kind of crackling noise from the pan they will be ready in about 5 minutes. They're best served hot.
In the Palatinate and Baden dampfnudeln are traditionally served as a main dish. Typically they're served with cream of potato soup and after that with vanilla custard as a kind of "second course".
But you can also serve them with vegetable soup, cabbage, salad, gherkins or mushrooms in white sauce as a main dish. Or you can serve them as dessert with vanilla custard, jam or boiled fruit.
