When I was growing up my Mom use to make a big pot of "Ruble soup" and we would have it for breakfast with butter and milk and sugar added...YUM!!...It was very hard to make and she only did it a few times because it took so long to make...But I would like to make it for my grandkids just once... She would make a hand mixed mixture of flour salt and eggs until these tiny little dumplings formed. Then she would put them in a big pot and add lot's of milk to them, and cook it on the stove until done...I would give anything if any one out there knows about this dish and could give me a recipe...I am pretty sure it was a german dish...I have seen "spaetzel" in the grocery store and thought that it kind've reminded me of Ruble Soup, but the noodles were smaller than with Ruble soup....Please respond if you have an answer...I will be forever grateful!!....

Sorry but i cant figure out what your talking about. I know a ruble is the currency in russia. But thats about it. Check out the spelling!

I couldn't find anything with "ruble, rubel, rouble" but I just looked up german dumpling soup and found a few. Here's one. Rouble is a russian denomination of money. Perhaps, when Russia overtook Germany, the German people nicknamed this soup for the Russian money because maybe it didn't cost a lot to make it or because the dumplings were small like the coins?
