- Combine with flour, egg, and salt and pepper to taste.
- Drop by 1/2 teaspoon into a large pot of boiling water.
- Dumplings are done when they float.

- Empty water from pot and return dumplings to it.
- Sprinkle dumplings with dill weed then combine with cottage cheese (I prefer small curd but either works).
- Re-warm dish to eating temperature (cottage cheese will reduce temperature) and serve.
- Alternatively combine with boiled cabbage instead of cottage cheese (also very tasty).
Tips:
- Use fresh cabbage: Fresh cabbage will give your dish the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh cabbage, you can use frozen cabbage, but be sure to thaw it completely before using it.
- Don't overcook the cabbage: Cabbage should be cooked until it is tender but still has a little bit of crunch to it. Overcooked cabbage will be mushy and bland.
- Use a variety of dumplings: You can use any type of dumpling you like in this dish. Some popular options include potato dumplings, bread dumplings, and meat dumplings. You can also make your dumplings from scratch or use store-bought dumplings.
- Serve with a dollop of sour cream: Sour cream is the traditional accompaniment to Hungarian cabbage and dumplings. It adds a creamy, tangy flavor that perfectly complements the dish.

Hungarian cabbage and dumplings is a hearty, flavorful dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a relatively easy dish to make, making it a great option for busy weeknights.
