Nana's Potato Soup with Dumplings ❤️

Nana's Potato Soup with Dumplings, aka Kartoffelsuppe mit Klösschen, was sent in by one of our readers, Nana from Witchita, KS, USA. Do read the notes added by Nana at the end of the recipe. She's even included dairy and gluten-free options!

She's trying to locate the origin of this soup. Perhaps you recognize it?

If you have an original or traditional German recipes, do send it in as well. We'd love to share it with our fellow readers!

Plus, I just made the dumpling-noodles with a homemade chicken vegetable soup adding brown rice flour for the dumplings as we now are gluten free (wheat, rye, barley,etc we avoid). Added the egg to center, and water to mix slowly then dribble in the soup. The soup and noodle-dumplings turned out about the same as with the white wheat flour kind.

Plus, I also have used yams and sweet potatoes, for dumplings which turned out very nice and moist instead of using white potatoes; these were using a recipe from this website for cooked potato dumplings, with my twist to it. These dumplings were great and similar to gnocchi type dumplings.

Then I tried the recipe that had rolled the potatoes dumplings and fried them in butter. This dumpling was really, really good.

Good compliment main meat to serve along with the dumplings, would be oven-baked lamb. Daughter gave me a recipe, putting in Cafe liquor and package of onion soup mix and leg of lamb course; putting oven at low temp about 275 F degrees, then, baked for 1 to 2 hours in covered casserole dish. It came out so tender fell right off bone, very quick and easy to do.

Dairy or/& Gluten free ideas

> Just put together, and used goat's milk for the milk part (if you are on a dairy/ casein free diet & don't use cow's milk).

> You can also put into the dumplings to flour mix a pinch of salt if you like the dumplings saltier. 

> For Gluten or wheat free, try brown rice four that should work OK.
