 2 1/2 c  All purpose flour

 There are many recipes for dumplings. Every family makes theirs a little


 different. Spaetzle are little dumpling, these are made with Farina or


 Cream of Wheat. They are firmer than an all flour Spaetzle. These are good


 in Chicken Soup, Tomato Soup, Chicken Paprikas, Beef Gulyas. Regards, June


 Meyer.


 


 Put flour, salt, and cream of wheat into a bowl. Make a well in the middle


 and add the eggs, water and butter. Stir until batter is smooth and thick.


 Cut the batter by teaspoon full into a big pot of boiling salted water. Dip


 the spoon into the hot water each time to keep the batter from sticking to


 the spoon. Cook only half the batter at a time to avoid crowding. Stir the


 bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon so that the dumplings will rise to


 the top. After the dumplings rise, let them cook for 2 minutes. Remove from


 the water and drain. Serve warm.
