Recipe View Prepare the Ham Broth: Place the ham in a large (at least 10 quart) soup pot, and cover with 16 to 20 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 2 hours to create a rich stock. Remove the ham and skim off any foam from the broth. Season the broth with 1 teaspoon of salt, or to taste.
Recipe View Make the Potato Dough: In a large bowl, combine the shredded potatoes, all-purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Use very wet hands to mix into a sticky dough.
Recipe View Shape and Fill the Kumla: Bring the ham stock to a rolling boil. Keep a bowl of water nearby to keep your hands wet. Pinch off about 2/3 cup of dough, flatten slightly, and press a piece of bacon into the center. Roll the dough into a ball about 2 1/2 inches in diameter. Gently slip the kumla into the boiling broth along the side of the pot, avoiding splashes.
Recipe View Simmer the Kumla: Cover the pot and simmer over low heat for about 15 minutes. Then, use a slotted spoon or spatula to gently lift any dumplings that may be sticking to the bottom of the pot. Cover again and continue to simmer for approximately 1 hour, or until the dumplings float to the top and are cooked through.
Recipe View Serve: Gently remove the kumla from the broth with a slotted spoon and arrange them in a bowl for serving. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Serve hot with butter and sour cream.
