Comments on: An Austrian Christmas Tradition-Krampus & Nikolo http://www.notquitenigella.com/2008/12/10/an-austrian-christmas-tradition-krampus-nikolo/ The slightly eccentric eating, cooking and travel adventures of a Sydney girl who loves cakes, cooking, Nigella Lawson and eating. She eats, breathes and dreams food and indeed will never get cable TV as she'd quit working and watch the Food Channel all day long.

I just found your site - LOVE it! I'm Hungarian and make several varieties of scrumptious dumplings. Either filled (with either plums or apricots, or jam) and another dumpling made with a special imported mild cheese (or you can use well-blended cottage cheese). Once cooked, the dumplings are tossed with toasted bread crumbs mixed with sugar and cinnamon. Serve with jam and sour cream - sounds wierd, but sooo yummy! (even my American hubby loves them). Your site brought back memories of my childhood spent with many of the same traditions that you got to experience and described with such perfection. Thank you for the memories of home! Wow!

Mum also makes the large gnocchi/dumplings and put fried breadcrumbs and sugar on top. I get strange looks at work when I eat this lol Esz…we’re Slovenian with dad being born near the Hungarian border and mum near the Italian, so we have a wide variety of dishes to chose from.
