Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon dried thyme or parsley
  • 0.75 teaspoons black pepper
  • 0.5 teaspoons salt
  • 0.5 teaspoons baking powder
  • 0.25 teaspoons baking soda
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 to 3 tablespoons milk (as needed)
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter (for sautéing)
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 1 head of cabbage, chopped
  • 0.25 cup vegetable or chicken stock
  • 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
  • Fresh parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Mix the dry ingredients: flour, thyme or parsley, black pepper, salt, baking powder, and baking soda in a bowl.
  2. Create a well in the center and add the beaten eggs, stirring until a stiff dough forms, adding milk as necessary.
  3. Bring a pot of salted water to boil. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of dough and drop them into the boiling water. Once they float, remove with a slotted spoon.
  4. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a skillet over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onion until soft and golden (about 8-10 minutes).
  5. Add the remaining butter, chopped cabbage, stock, and garlic powder to the skillet. Season with salt and pepper, cover and simmer until the cabbage is tender.
  6. Gently add the cooked dumplings to the sautéed cabbage, tossing to combine.
  7. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and adjust seasoning before serving hot.

Notes

Serve with crusty bread and apple sauce. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
