Instructions

1. Work the first 4 ingredients into a smooth dough and leave to rest under a warmed bowl for half an hour. Divide into 3 patties, roll out each approx. 5 mm thick and cut into squares with an edge length of approx. 10 cm.
2. Separate the egg. Mix the quark with the egg yolk and flour. Season to taste with the salt, it can taste good salty. Brush the edges of the pastry with the egg white.
3. Place 1 teaspoon of the quark mixture in the middle of each of the rectangles of dough as a filling and fold it up. Press the edges well.
4. Put in boiling salted water. When the cheese knobs float on top (if necessary remove them from the bottom with a wooden spoon, they sometimes sink down and stick) leave to stand for about 15 minutes.
5. Tip:
6. You can sprinkle the Käsknöpfle with breadcrumbs roasted in butter and serve with dressed lettuce or simply in a vegetable stock. Leftover cheese knobs taste very good fried in oil in a pan.
7. My father`s family ate it with a roast and sauce, which is very substantial.
