Holzknechtnocken (Austrian Boiled Dumplings)

Cookbook | Recipes | Ingredients | Equipment | Techniques | Cookbook Disambiguation Pages | Recipes | Austrian Cuisine Holzknechtnocken, translated as Lumberjacks’ Dumplings, is a traditional dish from Ebensee in Austria. In former times lumberjacks had to stay in the forest for days and would prepare dumplings. Hot water was poured over flour and salt to make the dough, which was then kneaded and formed into dumplings. Sometimes semolina was added to the dough to vary the dish. The dumplings were boiled and fried, and served with cabbage (sauerkraut), stewed apples or plums. Today, Holzknechtnocken are still very popular and can be eaten sweet or savory.
