Holsteiner Hochzeitssuppe (Hostein Wedding Soup):

Make a nice strong broth from beef and veggies like carrots, celery, leek and parsley. Or use instant beef broth and simmer with veggies. Probably you'd like to use chicken broth if there's already beef in the main course. Then use chicken meat to serve.

FLour dumplings:
1 tbsp. + 2 tsp. butter
5 - 6 eggs
salt, nutmeg
2 cups flour


Cream butter, mix with eggs, salt and nutmeg. Stir in just enough flour to make a firm dough. Drop by teaspoonfuls into simmering broth or saltwater. Let simmer for 12-15 minutes (they should come to the surface of the water).

Usually the soup is served in a large pot and on the table are bowl with hot cooked rice, flour dumplings, small meatballs, cooked meat and bread or rolls. Everybody takes what he wants to.
