Spinach Dumplings image

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."

Categories     Spinach

Time 15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach
1/2 cup chopped onion
1 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
1 cup parmesan cheese
2 eggs
2 cups all-purpose flour
8 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup butter

Steps:

  • Thaw and squeeze spinach to remove most of the moisture.
  • Add 2 tbsp butter to medium hot pan and toss onions and spinach together until thoroughly warm and quite dry.
  • 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).
  • Serve dumplings in a bowl with melted butter and a dusting of Parmesan cheese.

I had some trouble getting the dumplings to cook evenly. Some of them were overcooked, while others were still raw in the middle.

These dumplings were a little too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less salt next time.

The dumplings fell apart when I tried to boil them. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

These dumplings were a little bland for my taste. I think I'll add some more herbs and spices next time.

I'm not usually a fan of spinach, but these dumplings were surprisingly good. The spinach flavor was subtle, and the dumplings were very light and airy.

These spinach dumplings were a hit! The texture was soft and fluffy, and the spinach flavor was perfectly balanced. I served them with a simple tomato sauce, and they were delicious.
