Gölödinleves is a potato dumpling soup often cooked in Tápióság and its neighborhood. Tápióság is a small village located in the county of Pest, about 50 kilometers east of Budapest. The village is situated on the banks of the Tápió River, which is a popular destination for fishing and boating. The recipes of gölödinleves that circulate on the internet are slightly different, but the common point of all recipes is the potato dumplings,a combination of mashed potatoes, flour, salt and egg.
You often ask me what kind of cottage cheese (or curd cheese or farmer's cheese - call it what you want) I use in the recipes. In Hungary the store-bought cottage cheese is dry and crumbly as you can see in the picture. So if a recipe calls for túró, I mean this type. If you can't obtain túró, you can try to make your own from whole milk. Click on the link below.
In Hungary metric units are in use, all the recipes on this website are based on this system, so a kitchen scale is necessary. Since I’m not familiar with cup as a measurement unit, I convert grams to cups by using an online converter. The values in brackets, therefore, are only approximate volumes, so, please, double-check them before you start cooking.
