MARROW DUMPLINGS, to serve with Roast Meat, in Soup, with Salad, &c
Origin: London, England
Source: Isabella Beeton, 1861
Ingredients
- 1 oz beef marrow
- 1 oz butter
- 2 eggs
- 2 penny rolls
- 1 teaspoonful minced onion
- 1 teaspoonful minced parsley
- salt and grated nutmeg to taste
Instructions
- Beat the marrow and butter together to a cream; well whisk the eggs, and add these to the other ingredients.
- When they are well stirred, put in the rolls, which should previously be well soaked in boiling milk, strained, and beaten up with a fork.
- Add the remaining ingredients, omitting the minced onion where the flavour is very much disliked, and form the mixture into small round dumplings.
- Drop these into boiling broth, and let them simmer for about 20 minutes or 1/2 hour.
- They may be served in soup, with roast meat, or with salad, as in Germany, where they are more frequently sent to table than in this country.
- They are very good.
