Kärntner Kasnudeln

Description

Kasnudeln or Carinthian noodles consist of a simple dough that’s filled with a stuffing of either cheese, potatoes, or both. The noodles are sealed by either crimping or pressing the dough together on both sides. The oldest known recipe dates back to 1753, but the dish is not strictly Austrian, as there are numerous varieties of Kasnudeln present along the southern borders of Carinthia. Once the noodles have been boiled, they are often drizzled with butter or sprinkled with fried bacon pieces and served warm.
