This recipe, from my husband's Great-Grandmother who was from the Czech Republic, is a delicious meal that satisfies like a dinner and desert in one!
Dissolve 1 pkg dry yeast in 1/2 cup warm water and 1/2 tsp sugar
Stir in 2 tbsp sugar and 1/2 tsp salt, 1 tbsp shortening, 1 beaten egg and add 1/2 cup sifted flour. Stir until blended.
Let rise in warm place until doubled in bulk (about 1/2 hour).
Knead a little flour in and flatten on counter.
Cut into pieces, wrap all around fresh peaches.
Put into boiling water for 10-15 minutes depending on size of peach.
Great topped with cottage cheese and/or melted butter.
Makes 4-5 dumplings.

Yum! Will be trying that soon. I need some of the pasta dishes you have perfected since Italy.
Oh ya Jo...I'll have to post some of those sometime too! I'm not saying I've perfected them but they are mighty good and 100% authentic too!:) Great idea for this blog by the way!!!!
I can't believe your posting family secrets! My great-grandmother wrestled that out under the cover of the Nazi invasion of Czechoslovakia... ok, maybe not. =)
