03 — Method

  1. Peel and finely grate the raw potatoes, then squeeze hard by handfuls in a towel to remove as much liquid as possible.
  2. Mix with the buckwheat flour, garlic, parsley, lardons and pepper until it holds together.
  3. With damp hands, press into firm balls the size of a large tangerine; loosely packed ones fall apart.
  4. Bring the broth to a steady simmer, never a rolling boil.
  5. Lower the dumplings in with a skimmer and cook, covered, for 45 minutes. They float when done.
  6. Drain and serve hot with a ladle of broth, alongside salt pork or confit pork belly.
