INSTRUCTIONS
Cook the chuck in water to cover over medium heat until tender, about
45 minutes. Drain the meat; set aside to cool to room temp. Heat oil
in a heavy skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and liver and saute
until the onions are soft and the liver is cooked through, 3-4 minutes
each side. Drain off any excess oil from the liver and onions; set
aside to cool to room temp. With a meat grinder or in a food
processor, grind the liver and the chuck. Add 1 of the eggs, seasoned
with salt and pepper, and process until well mixed. In a large mixing
bowl, combine the flour and 1/4 tsp. salt and make a well in the
center. In a small bowl, whisk the remaining egg with 1/4 cup of
water. Pour the egg mixture into the well of the dry ingredients and
mix with a spoon until smooth. Turn out dough onto a floured board and
knead until soft and silky, about 6 minutes. If the dough is too wet,
dust with flour and knead it in. Divide the dough into 2 even balls.
Let the dough rest for 1 to 2 hours. Roll the dough out, 1 ball at a
time, 1/4 inch thick. Cut the dough into 3 to pointing at you, take 1
tablespoon of the meat mix and put it on the top half of the dough.
Moisten 2 sides of the dough with cool water and fold the bottom half
up over the top, forming a triangle. Fold the 2 opposite edges
together, pinching the dough so that the kreplach resembles a
tortellini. Repeat with the remaining dough squares and filling. (You
can freeze the kreplach at this point in freezer bags. They keep 2-3
months. Defrost in the refrigerator on a rack, so the bottoms don't
get soggy!) Bring the broth to a boil in a large pot. Slide the
kreplach into the boiling chicken broth and cook them through, about 5
minutes. Serve immediately. Makes 25-30 kreplach or serves 8. From
