Liver Dumpling Meatballs In A Heavenly Broth
- 1 pound chicken livers from organic free range chickens, ground
- 2 eggs, slightly beaten
- 1 cup stale peasant bread crumbs ( a little extra as well, in case needed)
- 1/4 cup dry white wine
- 1 ounce shallots, finely minced
- 1 ounce carrots, finely minced
- 1 ounce celeriac, finely minced
- 2 tablespoons chopped flat leaf parsley
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
- 2 tablespoons flat leaf parsley, (or cilantro) chopped, for garnish
- 1 quart homemade soup broth
- sweet paprika for garnish
- Add your stale bread crumbs to the beaten eggs.
- Make sure your chicken livers have no skins or tissue before grinding. They must be pure. Add the to ground livers to the bowl.
- Melt butter in a skillet and add the minced shallot, celeriac, and carrot. Cook until they are softened for about 1 minute, but do not brown. Next stir in the flour, salt, and pepper to the pan. Add the wine and reduce. Then add this whole mixture plus 2 tbl. parsley to the mix in the bowl.
- Cover and chill the combined mixture until cold (about 4 hours).
- After the mixture is cold, bring your homemade broth to a simmer. Scoop and drop about 20 small balls (@3/4" ) from the cold mix into the simmering broth.
- The mixture should hold together; if not add a little more bread crumbs. Poach for about 15 minutes, or until they dumplings rise to the top.
- Serve with the broth and garnish with 2 tbl. fresh chopped parsley (or cilantro) and sweet paprika.
