Hoorish

Hoorische (also: Hòòrische ) or Grumbeer-Spatze , Grompere-Stippchia , Schlembadde , Riwwelspatze or Jurreschwänz (North Saarland) are well-known in Saarland and the Palatinate , some elongated dumplings made from raw potatoes . In Saarland they are often eaten with bacon cream sauce and sauerkraut .

In the Palatinate, Hoorische Knepp are usually made half / half from boiled and raw potatoes and served as a side dish with, for example, sauerbraten or duck. In contrast to the Thuringian dumplings, which are also mixed , Hoorische are stabilized by adding eggs.

The name literally means "hairy" and alludes to the surface of the dumplings, which remains rough due to the rough grating / pounding of the potatoes. "Grompere-Stippchia" is Moselle-Franconian and means "potato puddle ".

Gefillde , also Gefillde Knepp , are filled potato dumplings made from raw and cooked potatoes. The filling is minced meat , coarse liver sausage ("homemade liver sausage") or a mixture of both. They, too, are usually served with baconcreamsauce and sauerkraut .
