Grandma Harter's Kenadles

Grandma Harter's Kenadles

Read complete recipe before making

T=Tablespoon
t=Teaspoon

9oz Dry Bread
3 Large Eggs
1 Small onion chopped fine
2T Flour
About 1 Cup water.  Use cold or tepid water, not hot

I take about a cup of water in a bowl. Then take a slice of dry bread and put it in the water.  Take it our right away adn crumble it up in a large bowl.  Do this with all the bread.  You might need more water.

After all the bread is crumbled up add the rest of the ingredients and mix.  It should be a mush but not too wet or dry.

Wet hands and make the mush into balls the size of a baseball and drop in hot broth just under the boiling point.  If too wet they will fall apart and you'll have bread soup. If the first one falls apart, add another slice or two of bread.  Do not put the bread in water first.

Let it absorb the moisture in the mush.  Or maybe you might have to put it in the water to make in crumble. Then squeeze it real dry.

The balls will go to the bottom of the boiling broth and in a little while come to the top.  You must put the ball in the hot broth as you make them.  After all are in and then boiling easy, boil about a half hour.

After you get all the bread through the water,  put the water what is left in with the bread crumbs. You may need more water.

I put the bread in the water and let it soak a little then squeeze it out.  I do this with each slice.

I also had this recipe.  It is one I made up:

7oz Dry bread cubes (Holsums)
2oz Seasoned herb bread stuffing
3 Large eggs
2 T Instant flour
2 C Water (Cold)
1 Small onion chopped

Make into a mush.  Wet hands and make into balls the size of baseballs. Drop into hot broth.

I used the herb stuffing cause I wanted to use up some old stuff I had on hand.
