Knoephlis (German Noodles) - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 c. flour
1 tsp. salt
4 large eggs
3/4 c. water or milk
3 qt. boiling water
1 stick butter or margarine
1 1/2 c. toasted bread or cracker crumbs
1 tsp. salt

Preparation

In a large bowl, combine flour and salt. Beat eggs in separate bowl with fork; beat in flour mixture with wooden spoon. Add water to make soft dough (barely runs off edge of bowl). Add remaining salt to boiling water; bring to rolling boil. Tilt bowl until dough reaches edge. As it starts to run off, take a silver knife and slice along edge of bowl, allowing dough to drop into boiling water. Cook about 5 minutes; drain. Pour melted butter over cooked noodles. Add bread crumbs.
