Kluski Śląskie Foodways

Kluski ślōnskie

Specialised

Round white dumplings of cooked potato and potato starch with a dent in the top to hold the sauce. ⚠ POTATO STARCH IS THE POINT — it makes them translucent and springy, unlike a flour dumpling; and ⚠ they are not kopytka, not knedle and not Bohemian houskový knedlík, though all are related.
