Directions

  1. Mix the yeast with a little warm milk, then combine the flour, egg, remaining milk, salt, and croutons to form a soft dough. Let it rise for about 1 hour.
  2. Form the meatballs and let them rest for about 15 minutes.
  3. Poach them in a large pot of simmering, salted water for about 20 minutes.
  4. Quickly remove them and open them immediately with a fork or a piece of string: they are so light that a string is better than a knife for cutting them. ≈ 3 min
