Re: Which should be Wisconsin's state food?
I have looked on google for what is the correct spelling, but when I type in kaneedle it comes up kanoodle and that's not it. I've also found knodel, which comes close. My grandma was good at misspelling words sometimes, so who knows what it is. Every year we got a Christmas card from "Stanta."
One of the good things about these dumplings, is that it was a good way to use up leftover mashed potatoes or even some old bread. My husband "loves" the part where you have to soak the bread in water and squeeze out the water. Kind of a yucky feeling.
I'll have to dig out my recipe and get you a copy. I don't think I'll kind the same one online. Although, I did find a few interesting dumpling recipe while searching.
My grandma also made something called plum roll. There has no plum or fruit in it. It's dough that is rolled flat and sprinkled with cinnamon, the rolled up jelly roll style. The roll gets steam cooked. It's topped with a custard sauce. It's good, but I wonder about the name. Where's the plum? My only guess would be that it originally had raisins and somewhere along the line, someone removed that ingredient from the recipe.
