  1. In a medium bowl mash the cheese with a fork. Stir in the eggs, 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, and the flour, all at once.

  3. Bring 10 quarts of water to a boil and add the remaining teaspoon salt. Reduce the water to a lightly rolling simmer and add 1/3 of the dumplings to the pot. Simmer, uncovered, until they float to the top.

  4. Remove them with slotted spoon and drain. Continue until all dumplings are cooked.

  5. Serve with a garnish of buttered toasted bread crumbs.
