- Boil the potatoes until soft inside. Drain the cooking water. Peel the potatoes as soon as they are cool enough to touch. Let them cool down.
- In a medium bowl, mash the potatoes. Add the remaining ingredients and mix them well. You can also use your hands.
- On a lightly floured surface, roll the potato mixture into a long roll. Cut into smaller pieces. Shape each piece into a small log with pointy ends.
- In a large pot, bring water just to boil. Add the Schupfnudeln and cook until they float to the surface.
- With a slotted spoon, remove the Schupfnudeln from the cooking water.
- Optional: fry them in melted butter until golden brown.
Notes
- You can make one test noodle to make sure they hold up. If they don’t, add just a tad more flour
- Make sure to simmer the Schupfnudeln instead of cooking them at a full boil to prevent them from falling apart
- Frying the noodles in melted butter is optional but highly recommended!
