HALUSHKI DUMPLINGS 
2 eggs
1/2 c. cold water
1 tsp. salt
2 c. flour (all-purpose)
Boiling water
Butter

Break eggs into a bowl, add cold water, salt and mix together. Add enough flour to make a medium stiff dough. Let it set while the water comes to a boil.

Place dough on small paddle type board, cut off small pieces with a table knife (dipped in hot water to avoid sticking), dropping dough into the boiling water. Boil gently until noodle like dumplings rise to top of water.

I'm from Pittsburgh, Halushki is a staple here. These dumplings are perfect. Easy to make, don't bother with store bought noodles, this makes the dish!

This is a good recipe. I use a thinner dough and put it in a German spaetzle maker and drop into the boiling water. We serve these in homemade chicken soup as a noodle. I am also from Pittsburgh and my bubba was from the Ukraine.

Way up in Northern British Columbia, Halooshki come from my Russian/Doukhobour family roots. Halooshki is a hearty potato soup to which I add chopped chicken and dumplings very similar to the shown recipe. Yum!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
