Hungarian Potato Dumplings
- Four 10-ounce baking potatoes
- 2 large egg yolks
- 1 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
- 1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
- Extra-virgin olive oil, for drizzling
- Chopped parsley and flaky sea salt, such as Maldon, for sprinkling
- Preheat the oven to 400.
- Using a fork, pierce the potatoes all over and wrap them in foil.
- Bake the potatoes for about 1 hour, until tender; let cool slightly.
- Peel the warm potatoes and pass them through a ricer into a large bowl.
- Using your hands, gently mix in the egg yolks.
- Sprinkle the flour, cheese and sea salt on top and gently stir them in with your hands.
- Scrape the dough onto a lightly floured surface and knead gently until smooth.
- Gently roll the potato dough into 1 1/2-inch balls and transfer to a wax paper-lined baking sheet.
- In a large saucepan of salted simmering water, simmer half of the dumplings until they are cooked through, 7 to 8 minutes.
- Using a slotted spoon, transfer the dumplings to a large shallow bowl and drizzle with oil.
- Repeat with the remaining dumplings.
