Ricotta Dumplings

Ben made Ricotta cheese last week. Click here to see a post on how to make ricotta.  Then I came across a recipe for Ricotta Dumplings with Chevre and Herbs.  It sounded interesting and we tried it out over the weekend.

It was a fun quick recipe to make.  The dumplings were good the day we made them.  Warmed up, they were not so great.  Overall, I give the recipe 2 cookies.  They tasted good, but I don't think we'll make them again.  I'd prefer many other recipes over this one.

Ingredients:

1/2 cup part-skim ricotta cheese
2 large eggs
1 1/2 cups flour
3/4 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons of water, as needed
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Handful fresh herbs (rosemary, parsley, thyme,)
2 ounces fresh chèvre
