RIVVEL SOUP

Steps:

• Bring the broth to a boil.
• In a bowl, mix flour, salt and eggs until you have a crummy mixture (not smooth, itíll make crumbs). Rub mixture between your fingers over the broth dropping small amounts in. These are called rivels. They should not be big, that is a dumpling. Maybe pea size.
• Add corn and cook about 10 - 15 minutes.

POTATO BACON RIVEL SOUP

Steps:

• Cook potatoes, onions, celery, salt, dash pepper in 2 cups of water in stockpot. Cover and cook until potatoes are easily pierced with tip of knife.
• To make rivels: beat egg and salt with fork in medium bowl. Add flour all at once and beat until small pebbles form. Use your fingers to break apart if necessary. If you have flour that did not incorporate into the egg, then just add it with the rivels as it will help thicken the soup.
• Add uncooked rivels slowly, adding water if necessary, stirring constantly, approximately five minutes until tender. Add whole milk and crisp bacon and bacon grease. Add evaporated milk and simmer until flavors are well blended.

POTATO SOUP WITH RIVELS

Steps:

• Cover the bite-sized potato cubes with cold, salted water.
• Bring to a boil over high heat and then turn down the heat to a simmer and cook until done (about 15 minutes).
• Pour the flour into a bowl and form a well (indentation) in the center.
• Beat the eggs together and pour them into the flour well.
• Pinch the flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt and egg together and the mixture will start to separate in to ‘pellets’.
• Drop the pellets into the boiling cooked potatoes.
• Simmer an additional 10 minutes or until the rivels (formerly known as pellets) are cooked through.
• Add the milk to the soup and heat through (do not boil).
• Season to taste.
