Quantity for 6 Persons.
- 3 tbsps. of melted beef marrow
- 2 eggs
- ¾ pt. grated rolls
- ½ tsp. chopped parsley
- 1 pinch nutmeg
- 1 tbsp. cold water
- ½ tsp. salt
Preparation: Boil or cook the marrow until it is melted, strain it through a fine sieve. Put 3 tablespoonfuls into a dish and let it cool off. Then beat it to foam and add the yolks of the eggs, salt, parsley, nutmeg, the grated rolls and water. Finally beat the whites of 2 eggs to stiff froth and stir into the mass.
Form small dumplings, let bouillon come to a boil, put the dumplings in and boil slowly ¼ hour.
It is best to try one dumpling first; in case it does not hold together, add some more grated roll.
The soup must be served at once. A little chopped parsley put into it is a pleasing and palatable addition.
