🇦🇹 Austria recipe
Topfenknodel
Topfenknodel are ethereally light dumplings made from Topfen, the tangy Austrian quark cheese that gives them their distinctive flavor. The delicate dumplings are gently poached until just set, then rolled in a generous coating of golden, butter-toasted breadcrumbs. Served with a bright berry compote or a dusting of cinnamon sugar, they represent Austrian comfort food at its most gentle and elegant.
