Curried Egg & Artichoke Dip

2 To 3 hard boiled eggs

1 (10 oz.?) can unmarinated

(plain) artichoke hearts x Mayonnaise x Sour cream x Surprisein powder x Curry powder Chop the eggs and artichoke hearts into chunks big enough to eat and small enough to scoop up on a cracker. Mix equal parts sour cream and mayonnaise, enough to make it all moist and tasty, and add spices to your taste @ 2 parts curry to one part cumin.
I like it spicy myself, but you don’t want to overwhelm the delicate flavour of the artichoke.
Exceedingly popular at parties, and goes quickly; I make a batch, put it in the refrigerator, and gnosh my way through it in a day or so! From: ucismas@issc.unocal.com (Melyssa S.).

-jackets a day ahead 3 tb To 4 tb (heaping) flour

2 Eggs

1/4 c Water

Salt So called for their well-known propensity to slip (’glitschen’) off one’s plate, ‘Glitscher’ are also called ‘Wetzsteine’ (whetstones) because they are more or less the same shape (although shorter) as the old-fashioned sharpening stones used for a sickle or scythe blade.
Grate the raw potatoes into a bowl full of water, then place in a coarse muslin bag or wrap in a rolled-up dishtowel, and wring out thoroughly.
The boiled potatoes should be cooked a day in advance, then peeled and grated on the following day.
Combine the two, along with the flour, eggs, and water, and mix thoroughly; season with salt.
Shape the dumplings with wet hands.
The dumplings should be fairly long and pointed at both ends.
Cook in simmering salted water for about 20 minutes. Makes 4 to 6 servings.

Dampfnudle (Yeast Dumplings)

Ingredients
500 grams flour, (4 1/2 cups less 1 tablespoon)
1/4 litre milk, (1 cup plus 1 tbsp)
40 grams yeast, fresh (1.4 ounces)
1 dash salt
150 grams butter, or, better yet, clarified butter (2/3 cup)
1 each egg, up to 2 eggs
Directions:

Heat the milk a bit and then dissolve the yeast in it.

Make a well in the flour, and pour the yeast mixture into it.
Let rest for 1/2 hour.

Then, add the remaining milk and the salt, and knead well. Vigorously beat the dough until it forms bubbles, then cover, and in a warm spot, let rest for 1 hour.

Cut off fist size pieces, and - on a floured pastry board - let these pieces rise one more time, for another 15 minutes.

In a wide pot, melt the fat, and then add warm, salted water to a depth of about 3/4 inch.
Add the dumplings, arranged in one layer, touching each other.

Put a lid on the pot, and additionally seal the edges - where the lid rests on the pot - with damp cloths in order to keep the steam inside.

Bake at low heat.
The dumplings should be done in about 20 minutes, and have the highly desirable ‘Schuepet’ (hard, brown crust) on the bottom.

‘Dampfnudle’ may be served sour, with sauerkraut, or sweet, with stewed fruit or vanilla sauce.

Variation: DAMPFNUDLE IN DER SCHLEIFERBRUEH* (Steamed Dumplings in thin gravy):

Prepare as for regular ‘Dampfnudle’, but prior to arranging them in the pot, thoroughly dust the bottom of each dumpling with flour.

During the steaming process, the flour and water will form a whitish gravy that is called ‘Schleiferbrueh’.

[*Note: In the olden days, scissors-and-knife grinders would go from house to house, wheeling a little cart with a round, treadle-operated whetstone.

The bottom of the whetstone would be in a bit of water, which - with the treadle turning the stone - would keep the grinding surface wet.
As the grinder sharpened knives and scissors, a bit of the whetstone would wear off, and this somewhat cloudy water was the original application of the term ‘Schleiferbrueh’.
