1 1/2 Cups Flour
1 Teaspoon Salt
1/2 Cup Water or Milk
1 Egg
Beat egg well, add salt and water and stir this into the flour until a smooth batter is formed. Drop by spoonfuls into a large kettle of boiling, salted water. Boil until they float to the top then simmer gently a few minutes longer. Test one by pulling apart with two forks; when dry and spongy it is done. Drain in a colander. Pour hot fat or meat gravy over them and serve. Garnish with fried onions, cracker crumbs, grated american or cottage cheese with salt and pepper, chopped walnuts, or scrambled eggs.
