A really great way to use up leftover dry bread is in dumplings. I have a bag living in my freezer that collects end pieces of loaves, extra rolls leftover from breakfast or soft, german style pretzels that didn’t get eaten. It would be a shame to throw away nice food, so here is my favourite way to put old bread to great use: „Serviettenknödel“ as Germans call them. The word comes from the fact that the dumplings are boiled in a rolled up cloth, which resembles a napkin.
It is a pretty foolproof recipe, no falling appart for example, which is often the case with other types of dumplings. These are „beginner dumplings“ to get you hooked on the concept.
They make a great side to mixed mushroom stew, but work equally well with anything with a bit of sauce.
