The night before, prepare the liver dumpling mixture. Sauté the chopped onion in butter until softened. In a large bowl, moisten the bread pieces with warm milk until damp but not soaking. Let sit for 1-2 hours to absorb. Knead the bread until crumbly. Drain any excess milk.

In a food processor, pulse the onion and parsley until finely minced. Add the liver pieces, egg, salt, pepper, and marjoram. Pulse until smooth. Add the moistened bread and pulse until combined. The mixture should be loose but not runny. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
