If you wish to recreate the atmosphere of ski holidays in Italy at home, we recommend you to try the following recipe: kaspressknödel!

Roast the onions in the butter. Place the bread cubes in a large bowl and mix with the milk, cheese, eggs, flour, the finely chopped chives and parsley and season according to taste. Use your hands to work the mass until smooth and even. Leave to rest for about 15 minutes and seize this time to plan your next ski holidays in Italy.
