- Peal and cut potatoes, boil in 4 cups of water with 1 tsp of salt.
- When the potatoes are done cooking, strain all the water.
- Mash potatoes for as long as you can’t see or feel any lumps. Let cool.
- Prepare large pot, or two medium pots, add water at least 3 in. high and bring the water to boil.
- Place potatoes on a flat surface; add flour, salt, farina, and eggs. Kneed by hand into smooth dough.
- Divide the dough into 4 even pieces, and shape them into equal cylinders 2 inches in diameter.
- Roll each piece in more farina cereals, place them in boiling water, and stir with wooden spoon so that they don’t stick to the bottom.
- Return to rolling boil, cover with lid and set it aside just little bet so the steam can escape. Turn down to medium heat, and cook for 20 minutes. Turn the dumplings over after 10 minutes.
- Take the dumplings out with the help of a wide spatula. Place the spatula in the middle, under the dumpling and remove on a nearest flat surface. Let sit for 5 minutes before cutting half inch, thick slices. You can use a sharp knife or for even cleaner cut, use thread. Place the thread underneath the dumpling where you want to make the cut, wrap the thread around the dumpling, cross the opposite ends and pull. Sliced dumplings place in a serving bowl and cover.

can these be made a day or two before needed and then re-heated? if so, what’s the best way to store/re-heat?
It can be made a day before, but fresh is always best.If you make them in advance I recommend to freeze them right after they cool off. Wrap them tightly in plastic (bag or saran wrap).To defrost, let them sit in a room temperature for some time or if in rush place in microwave for 1 minute( still wraped) .Cut the dumplings into slices and reheat right before serving on a plate with paper towel on the bottom and cover with slightly damp paper towel.Heat for 1 min or 2.Dumplings can also be reheated with steam.In a pot add little bit of water,place metal strainer in which you placed your sliced dumplings,cover with lid and bring to boil. the steam will refresh and reheat the dumplings. Always keep dumplings covered even on a serving table, they do dry fast.
Fantastic exactly like my grandmother’s dumplings. They came out perfectly
