SCHNITZ UN KNEPP
Boil a 3 lb. piece of ham for two hours. Pick over and clean 1 qt. of dried apples; soak in enough water to cover. When meat has boiled for the stated time, add dried apples and water in which they have been soaking and continue to boil for another hour. Prepare dumpling batter as follows:

* 2 cups flour
* 1 egg
* 4 teaspoons baking powder
* 3 tblsp. melted shortening
* ¼ teaspoon pepper
* 1 tablespoon milk

Sift together the dry ingredients and mix the dough with egg, which has been well beaten, the melted shortening and the milk. Drop batter by spoonfuls into the boiling liquor of the ham and apples. Cover tightly and cook for 15 minutes. Raisins may be added if desired.
