"Francuskie kluski" - (noklice) my cheerful grandmother.
My grandmother was truly an excellent cook, and she could talk about food all day long. She often did various types of nails. Does this recipe have anything to do with France at all - I don't know, but that's what my grandmother called these noklice. When she prepared them, they melted in your mouth ... They can be eaten alone with a little parmesan, but I like them best with various sauces.
Preparation steps
- Grandma, tell me how you make these "French balls"? ... mom sometimes makes them, but they are very hard, and with you grandma - they melt in your mouth ... And how does mom make them? - Grandma asked. So put eggs, flour and water and then with a spoon in hot water. It doesn't work that way! All blushed exclaimed Grandma, that’s how soup noodles are made, not French noodles! And where's the butter ... so the egg whites need to be whipped ... Ah that Lenka ... Lenka (my mom), she never liked to cook. Now Grandma will tell you how to prepare. Always make them when you invite nice guests — they will be very pleased. This recipe was brought to Poland by "frogs" (French), when Napoleon fell in love with our Marisienka ... (Maria Walewska).
- First, take the butter out of the fridge, because otherwise you will have a hard time whipping it, then separate the egg yolks from the egg whites.
- Now whisk the egg whites so that when it becomes snow, add a pinch of salt, you will whisk more easily. Yes, my hand hurts, I heard that they invented an electric device - you just turn it on and make everything for you. (I bought my grandmother a mixer in two years - she was overjoyed!). ".
- Now whisk the butter, add one egg yolk and then whisk, then the next egg and whisk ... it must look like cake cream ..
- Now add to that whipped egg white and add a little, spoon by spoon, the flour. Yeah, flour must be sifted beforehand, to get air. Add a pinch of salt.
- Eee, I forgot to tell you, when you take out the butter put it in a big pot of water to boil it and add a teaspoon of salt to the water. When the water boils, take a spoon, soak it in that boiling water, so your dough won’t stick to the spoon. Grab some of the mixture and put in boiling water. When you are done, wait for all the nails to float, then fold in half and reduce the heat. Let them cook for another three to five minutes. Drain the water and serve immediately, still warm. If your guests happen to be late - put them in a strainer and then in a pot in which water is boiled, let them heat with steam.
Serving
These noklice, my dear, go best with game, but as you tried, they go with all sauces ... the "frogs" know what is good ... I prepared these noklice with chicken in curry sauce, my son is delighted - otherwise the strictest food critic in the house ... I'm so happy!
