Description
Dumplings can easily be confused with gnocchi, as both are found in soups. However, dumplings can also be enjoyed without broth, for instance, simply sautéed with bacon, as in our recipe.

- Kefir - 6 fl oz
- Chicken Egg - 1 piece
- Wheat Flour - 13.4 oz
- Activated Baking Soda - ½ spoons
- Salted pork belly - 7.1 oz
- Onion - 1 head
- Salt - to taste
- Ground Black Pepper - to taste

Step 2
Sift the flour.

Knead the dough, cover it with plastic wrap, and let it rest for 20 minutes.
