Instructions

  1. 1 Place whole potatoes in their skins into a large pot of boiling water; boil for 25 to 30 minutes. Remove potatoes, and discard water. When cool enough to handle, peel potatoes, and place on a lightly floured surface. Mash potatoes with a rolling pin.
  2. 2 Place mashed potatoes into a large bowl. Stir in flour, egg, parsley, salt, and nutmeg. Knead well to form a smooth dough. Then roll out the dough to a thickness of about 1/2 inch. Cut flattened dough into thin strips, about 1 1/2 inches long. Gently roll out the strips, or stretch them until the ends taper. Set aside for 15 minutes.
  3. 3 In a large skillet, heat lard over medium heat. Place the potato strips into the skillet, and fry until golden brown on both sides.

  1. 1 Sprinkle yeast over warm water in a bowl. Let stand until yeast softens and begins to form a creamy foam, about 5 minutes.
  2. 2 Meanwhile, combine flour and salt in the bowl of a food processor; pulse once or twice to combine. Scatter butter over flour; process until butter is thoroughly mixed into flour mixture, about 1 minute.
  3. 3 Whisk yeast mixture, sour cream, egg yolks, egg, and vanilla extract together in a bowl; pour into food processor. Pulse several times just until dough starts to hold together and cleans the sides of the bowl (do not overmix). Transfer dough to a work surface; divide in half. Form each dough half into a thick disk; wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 2 hours to overnight.
  4. 4 Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line several baking sheets with parchment paper.
  5. 5 Sprinkle a work surface generously with sugar. Roll out 1 dough disk into an 8x16-inch rectangle; sprinkle dough generously with sugar. Fold dough over in thirds, letter-style. Repeat rolling, sugaring, and folding two more times. Roll out dough into a 4x14-inch rectangle, about ¼-inch thick. Repeat process with second dough disk.
  6. 6 Cut strips from short sides of dough rectangles about ½- to ¾-inch wide. Place strips onto the prepared baking sheets, twisting and slightly stretching strips or form into horseshoe shapes.
  7. 7 Bake in the preheated oven until lightly golden brown, 12 to 15 minutes. Cookies will puff up a bit to reveal delicate layers. Cool cookies on baking sheets for about 5 minutes before transferring to wire racks to cool completely.

Instructions

  1. 1 Scrub potatoes, and place them into a large pot with enough water to cover. bring to a boil, and cook until tender, about 40 minutes. Drain, and cool. When potatoes are cool enough to handle, peel, and press through a ricer into a large bowl. Set aside to cool. This part of the process can be done as much as one day in advance.
  2. 2 In a large bowl, mix together the prepared potatoes, salt, egg, and 1 tablespoon of butter until well blended. Gradually stir in the farina, and then the flour. If dough is still wet, more flour can be mixed in. Turn dough out onto a floured surface, and knead until smooth, about 5 to 10 minutes.
  3. 3 Split open each plum where it cracks, and remove the pit. Replace each pit with a sugar cube, and close.
  4. 4 On a floured surface, roll out the dough to 1/4 inch thickness. Cut into twelve 3 inch squares. Place one plum into each square, and bring the corners around to the top. Pinch together all of the seams to seal.
  5. 5 Bring a large pot of water to a slow boil. Place about 4 dumplings into the water at a time. Once they float to the surface, continue to cook them for about 5 more minutes. Transfer cooked dumplings to a covered bowl, and keep warm.
  6. 6 Melt the remaining 1/2 cup of butter in a small skillet over medium heat. Stir in bread crumbs, and 1/4 cup of sugar. Continue to cook and stir until browned. Remove the bread crumbs to a plate, and roll warm dumplings in the mixture until entirely coated. To serve, place a dumpling or two on a plate, sprinkle with a little sugar and a little extra melted butter, if desired.
