Powidltascherl

Powidltascherln (also Powidltatschkerln or Powidldatschgerl ) are dumplings filled with Powidl ( plum jam ) in Austrian and Bohemian cuisine .

For the preparation, potato dough is rolled out on a board dusted with flour to a thickness of approx. 3 millimeters and then cut out 6 to 8 centimeters round, then you put Powidl in the middle, which is sometimes refined with a little cinnamon and rum . The dough cut out is then placed on top of each other in a crescent shape and the edges are pressed together firmly. The filled dumplings are then placed in lightly boiling salted water for 6 to 8 minutes, then removed and rolled in breadcrumbs that have previously been roasted golden yellow in butter, sprinkled with sugar and served warm. In the past, it was common to prepare Powidldatschgerln without potatoes with a dough made from wheat flour.

Powidltascherln are mainly eaten in Austria and the Czech Republic . The word Powidl comes from Czech and means something like plum jam.

They find literary mention in Martin Walser's novel Soul Work . They are also an important element in the comic magazine Mosaik number 54 from May 1961. Powidltascherl are characters in Māris Putniņš 'children's book Die wilden Piroggenpiraten , where they are referred to as Powidltatschkerl in the German translation.

Powidltatschkerln is also the title of a chanson by Hermann Leopoldi .
