For years, I'd been trying to figure out how my grandmother made her rivel soup. Then I discovered that it wasn't just something she came up with, but a prized heirloom recipe. Many families have their own special version. —Kathy Kegley, Rural Retreat, Virginia

Ingredients

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 4 cups 2% milk
  • Minced fresh parsley and coarsely ground pepper

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, combine flour and salt. Cut in egg with a fork until crumbly.
  2. In a large saucepan, heat milk over medium heat until bubbles form around sides of pan. Gradually add flour mixture; bring to a gentle boil, stirring constantly. Cook and stir until rivels are cooked through, 1-2 minutes. Sprinkle servings with parsley and pepper.
