Method

Dice the bread, fry it lightly in the butter or lard and tip into a mixing bowl.

Whisk the milk and egg together and mix into the bread.

Sift the flour into the egg, milk, and bread mixture; add the herbs and season with salt and pepper.

Mix thoroughly and leave for 30 minutes.

If the mixture seems too dry and crumbly, add more milk; if too wet, add a little more flour.

With wet hands, quickly form into marble-sized balls and carefully drop into lightly salted simmering water, or directly into the soup.

They will be ready after about 10 minutes and will pop up to the surface.
