POTATO DUMPLINGS
Good to use with stews or soups. When I was growing up we had these with sauerbraten. I don't know why there's always a crouton in the center, there just is.

SPINACH DUMPLINGS
This recipe is from my favorite cookbook, a book of family recipes collected for me by my greatest cooking inspiration, my dad. This is his description of the recipe: "Spinach Dumplings have become a favorite at special dinners such as Thanksgiving and Christmas. I first made these while trying to impress a date before you were born. The meal was great, she wasn't. Dumped the girl, kept the dumplings."

- Transfer to bowl and add ricotta first, stir together. (this cools the spinach and prevents the eggs from cooking when added).
- Add eggs, parmesan, and flour.
- Spoon 3/4" balls from the mix and roll in flour to coat.
- Heat the chicken broth to boil, then simmer.
- Add dumplings to broth and cook 10-12 minutes. (make sure the broth does not boil as this could undo the dumplings).

Steps:
- Bring a medium pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the spinach and cook for 30 seconds, until it turns a vivid green, then, using a slotted spoon, transfer it to a bowl of ice water. Chill thoroughly and drain. Wrap the spinach in a clean cheesecloth or tea towel to wring out excess moisture, then roughly chop it and set it aside.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and ¼ teaspoon of the salt and set aside. In a medium nonstick skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-low heat until a few drops of water added to the pan sizzle and evaporate. Pour in the egg mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, for 4 minutes, just until the eggs form fluffy curds but have not fully set; they should still be slightly runny. Remove from the heat and let cool in a medium bowl.
- Use your hands to gently fold the eggs, sesame oil, oyster sauce, remaining 1¼ teaspoons of salt, and pepper together until fully combined. Gently fold in the spinach and mix until fully incorporated.
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Meanwhile, make the dumplings. Holding a wrapper in your palm, use a fork to add about 1 tablespoon of the filling to the center of the wrapper, then lightly pat down the filling with the fork to get rid of any air bubbles.
- Fold the dumpling into the round yuan bao shape: Cradle the wrapper in your hands and fold the edge closest to you over the filling. Lightly squeeze the dumpling to push out any air bubbles. Clasp one end of the dumpling between your thumb and index finger to pinch it shut; repeat on the other side of the dumpling. Cradle the dumpling in your palms, clasping the sealed edge between your thumbs and index fingers, and squeeze it shut while pushing inward, making sure to squeeze out any air bubbles. The dumpling's belly should form a teardrop shape between your thumbs, which will create the yuan bao shape. Inspect the dumpling for any fissures that could rupture during cooking and pinch them shut. Repeat with the rest of the wrappers.
- Working in batches, add the dumplings to the pot, 6 at a time. Boil for 2 minutes on high, then reduce the heat to medium-high and cook for 1 minute, then reduce the heat again to medium and cook for 2 more minutes. The dumplings are ready a minute or so after they rise to the surface; their skins will turn puffy. Using a slotted spoon, gently transfer the dumplings to a plate and serve immediately. Bring the water back to a boil over high heat and repeat with the remaining dumplings.
POTATO SOUP WITH SPINACH DUMPLINGS
I remember my mother often making this soup for Saturday night supper. During the war years, she would cook a lot of stews and soups - she'd start with a big kettle of chicken stock, and it was amazing what she could make! Even though I didn't like spinach much, I liked this soup. I loved to help Mom in the kitchen, and was cooking by myself when I was 10. Cooking has been one of my hobbies, along with sewing and crafting, ever since. I've even won several recipe contests.

SPINACH GNOCCHI (POTATO DUMPLINGS)
I saw a couple other spinach gnocchi recipes on here, but this is a bit different so I thought I'd post it. It is very filling and great with a side of steamed broccoli. The prep time is mostly chilling.

Steps:
- Peel potatoes and boil in salted water about 20 minutes or until able to mash, then place in a large mixing bowl and well.
- Mash.
- Steam spinach in a couple tbsp water covered about 5 minutes or until wilted, then remove and pat dry with a paper towl.
- Chop spinach into approximately 1/4 inch pieces and then mix into potatoes.
- Add butter, egg, garlic salt, and half of the flour and mix together well.
- Place dough onto a floured surface and knead in the remaining flour to form a soft dough.
- Roll dough into about 1 inch thick ropes then cut off 1 inch pieces and roll into a ball.
- With floured hands press the center of each dumpling to form a trough in the middle.
- Allow gnocchi to chill for about an hour, then place in salted boiling water and allow to cook about 5 minutes.
- Drain and serve with tomato sauce.
Tips:
- Choose the right potatoes: Waxy potatoes like Yukon Gold or Red Bliss hold their shape better than starchy potatoes like Russets, making them ideal for dumplings.
- Boil the potatoes until they are just tender: Overcooked potatoes will become mushy and won't hold together as well.
- Mash the potatoes while they are still hot: This will make them smooth and lump-free.
- Add the flour gradually: Too much flour will make the dumplings tough.
- Don't overwork the dough: Overworking the dough will make the dumplings tough.
- Let the dumplings rest before cooking: This will help them hold their shape.
- Cook the dumplings in boiling water: This will prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Serve the dumplings immediately: They are best when they are hot and fluffy.
Conclusion:
Spinach potato dumplings are a delicious and versatile dish that can be served as a main course or a side dish. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Try adding different herbs, spices, or cheeses to the dough. You can also serve them with different sauces, such as a simple butter sauce or a creamy mushroom sauce. No matter how you choose to serve them, spinach potato dumplings are sure to be a hit.
