For Richard's Potato dumpling recipe question. What kind of potatoes do you use? Thanks.

I didn't think to ask, I used new potatoes. making them again tomorrow and

experimenting with part of the dough for ravioli. I have Richard's sauerbraten marinating for dinner on wednesday smileys/smile.gif

 
I have Yukon goldens and russets. Maybe I will do some of both. Thanks Randi.

Let us know how the ravioli experiment turns out. I use cornstarch in place of flour for making fried chicken. It makes a really nice light crunchy crust.

 
plan on being here around 6:30, I'll throw together a walnut, pear and raisin

struddle to go with dinner..... tempting isn't it? "-))

a question on the browned flour for the gravy, is it different than making a roux with the butter and flour and cooking that for 3 or more minutes until slightly browned?

I'll report on the ravioli tonight or tomorrow. going to just make a few with a mushroom filling, just as a "test run".

 
yum. very tempting.

the great thing about the browned flour is that you can do it in advance, then use it when you need it, and you don't have to make a roux. You leave as much fat in your pan juices as you would for a roux, then just stir in the browned flour and you basically have the same effect.
