My polish mom made these kluski noodles and covered them with hot melted butter and cottage cheese. Boy was that a tasty treat to us kids. I have made them for my kids and they still want some when they come home. I finally taught my oldest son how to make them for his family. They love them too. A great lenten dish. Yummy!

I learned this recipe from my mother who learned it from my grandmother who came from Germany. She made the noodles as described only she would cut small squares, put a teaspoon full of bulk sausage in the center, fold up sides and drop into a large pan of boiling sauerkraut and water. Later on I changed up the way of doing this - I simply cut thin-rolled noodles into thin slices and dropped the noodles into the sauerkraut and water and added small pinches of bulk sausage. Makes a delicious "soup"

My Mom called the "dropped" pinches of dough, rivels. They are basically the same, except the noodles can be dried and saved. Rivels are dropped into broth/soup right away. Another variety of dough is spaetzle, which sometimes is forced through a sieve into the broth.

I never buy noodles anymore when I make chicken noodle soup... THIS is the recipe I use! I do find that I have to add about twice as much water as what's called for. Then I form it into a ball, cut into four pieces, and roll each piece out very thin. I then use a pizza cutter to cut them to size and a LARGE hand spatula to scrape them off the board. I do a quick toss in flour and then let them dry for a bit on a cooling rack covered in a towel. DELISH! Thanks for the recipe!

These sound like the noodles used by the Amish for their cabbage and noodles recipes. Did any of you ever tried Farina dumplings? So fluffy and soft and flavorful in your soup. You can also just make Farina ball soup.

These are kluski like it says polish noodles. These are not dumplings for people who are not polish, dumplings noodles are made with grated potatoes and dropped off a spoon. There are receipt here for them also. They're all good..

My polish grandma would make her version of these noodles by mixing a handful of flour with an egg. She then dropped them by tsp into boiling salted water. She served them with her chicken stock soup. I tried to repeat the recipe to impress my new husband following her directions. The dough sank to the bottom of the pot just like she said it would but it stayed there. I called her about my dilemma. She asked how long they had been down there and I told her 1/2 hour. She laughed so hard she couldn't talk. "too much flour" she gasped. I made her measure some flour from her hand into a measuring cup. Hers measured 2/3 cup, mine 1 1/4 cup. She was 5'0", I'm 5'8". I still get teased about it 30 yrs later.

What an awesome memory! Thanks for sharing. :)

My Mother would add more water and the dough would be the consistency of thick oatmeal. It was then placed on a dinner plate and scraped into boiling water with the back of a teaspoon. The spoon was dipped in the water periodically to prevent sticking. The dough balls would float to the top and boil for about two minutes. They were then drained and could be eaten with butter fried cabbage and onions(haluski) or used in place of noodles in chicken or beef soup.

Yes - this is how I have seen it done. My gonna had polish neighbors that would make delicious noodles. They lived in western PA.

I make these noodles, and continue on to make Haluski... Kluski noodles, carmelized onion, butter, salt, pepper, cooked cabbage, BACON, garlic powder. OMG!! Best served at room temp.

We boil ours and either serve with sautéed cabbage and onions (sautéed in butter of course) or just the noodles in warm milk with salt and butter. So good! I add much more water to mine though, so the dough slides off spoon into boiling water.

Firstly, I would love to thank whoever it is that put this simple, yet unbelievably delicious recipe up. My dear sweet mamusia (god have mercy on her soul) use to make these for us when we were just little munchkins. I like to think that she was preparing them for me, because it truly was one of my favorite meals as a child :) after my mom prepped & boiled them, she would caramelize butter and just ever so gently, sprinkle the butter over the top. Yummm!!!... After prepping my kluski, I gently put them into rapidly boiling water, boiled for 15 - 20 minutes, after they were cooked, I poured some homemade chicken stock over the kluski. Amazing!! Thanks for listening to my little story and smacznego.

My mom used to make a noodle like this. She always grated a potato or two and mixed that into the flour/egg mixture and then rolled off small pieces into boiling water. After the noodles were done she would mix them with cooked cabbage and onions. Does this ring a bell with anyone else?

Yes steve... from.. ny ... my mom and her older sis.. always made them.. with the cabbage... ummmm so good.. I'm going to try n make my own noodles.. but I DO make the cabbage n onions..alot :)

When I make mine I roll them thin then use a pizza cutter to slice the noodles. Then I boil them in broth before adding to the soup.

Watching both my Polish grandmother from the old country and my mother making Kluski was one of my happiest childhood memories! I loved how they cut the little pieces of dough off of the board into the boiling water. Then, while the kluski was cooking, they browned lots of real butter in a skillet. The cooked kluski was tossed into the browned butter with a little salt and oh how good it was! The browned butter gives it a distinct taste that you will love. Thanks for this memory.

Is there any way you can share with us your recipe? My mom use to make these, she passed away last Mother's day. I wished I paid better attention. I would really appreciate it!

I make these every Christmas Eve, dropping very small pieces into boiling water. When cooked, the kluski are then tossed with finely chopped savoy cabbage that has been lightly sauteed in butter. Also use some of the plain boiled kluski to mix with dried prunes for a little sweeter Christmas Eve dish. The prunes get cooked in small amount of water before mixing with the noodles as this creates a small amount of sweet sauce.
