Steps

  • Dice the bread, fry it lightly in the butter or lard and tip into a mixing bowl.
  • Whisk the milk and egg together and mix into the bread.
  • Sift the flour into the egg, milk, and bread mixture; add the herbs and season with salt and pepper.
  • Mix thoroughly and leave for 30 minutes.
  • If the mixture seems too dry and crumbly, add more milk; if too wet, add a little more flour.
  • With wet hands, quickly form into marble-sized balls and carefully drop into lightly salted simmering water, or directly into the soup.
  • They will be ready after about 10 minutes and will pop up to the surface.
