Prep. Time:

Total Time:

Ingredients:

3/4 lb. pumpkin, or substitute winter squash, halved, seeded, cut into cubes about the size of walnuts, and peeled
1/4 cup water
salt
2 eggs
4 cups all purpose white flour
4 tbsp. butter
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

Directions:

Put the cubed pumpkin into a deep saucepan, add the water and season with a pinch of salt. Cook slowly, stirring from time to time, for about 20 minutes, or until the pumpkin cubes are reduced to a pulp. Mash the pumpkin or puree it through a sieve or food mill.

Let the puree cool, then add the eggs and enough flour to produce a paste that is thick enough to hold its shape on a spoon. Drop small spoonfuls of the paste into boiling salted water and cook until the dumplings rise to the surface.

Remove the dumplings from the water with a skimmer and serve tossed in butter and Parmesan cheese.

Serves 6 to 8.
