1. 1

   For the filling: In a small saucepan, combine the finely chopped rhubarb and sugar. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the rhubarb has softened and released its juices, about 5-7 minutes. Let it cool completely.

   💡 Ammattilaisvinkit: Cooking the rhubarb first prevents it from being too tart and watery in the filling.
2. 2

   In a bowl, mix the cooled rhubarb mixture with the skyr and vanilla extract. Stir until well combined. Set aside.

   💡 Ammattilaisvinkit: Ensure the rhubarb mixture is completely cool before mixing with skyr to prevent curdling.
3. 3

   For the dough: In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour and salt. Make a well in the center.

   💡 Ammattilaisvinkit: Using a well makes it easier to incorporate the wet ingredients.
4. 4

   Crack the egg into the well and add about 50ml of water. Gradually mix the flour into the wet ingredients, adding more water a tablespoon at a time if needed, until a soft, pliable dough forms. Knead lightly on a floured surface for 2-3 minutes.

   💡 Ammattilaisvinkit: The dough should be soft but not sticky. Adjust water or flour as needed.
5. 5

   Roll out the dough thinly (about 2-3mm thick) on a lightly floured surface.

   💡 Ammattilaisvinkit: Thin dough results in more delicate dumplings.
6. 6

   Cut out circles of dough, about 7-8 cm in diameter. Place a teaspoon of the skyr-rhubarb filling in the center of each circle.

   💡 Ammattilaisvinkit: Don't overfill the dumplings, or they will be difficult to seal.
7. 7

   Moisten the edges of the dough with a little water and fold the dough over the filling to create a half-moon shape. Press the edges firmly to seal. You can crimp the edges with a fork for extra security.

   💡 Ammattilaisvinkit: A good seal is essential to prevent the filling from leaking out during cooking.
8. 8

   Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a gentle simmer. Carefully drop the dumplings into the simmering water, being careful not to overcrowd the pot. Cook in batches if necessary.

   💡 Ammattilaisvinkit: Simmering, not boiling, is key to tender dumplings.
9. 9

   Cook the dumplings for about 8-10 minutes, or until they float to the surface and the dough is cooked through. Remove with a slotted spoon.

   💡 Ammattilaisvinkit: Dumplings are cooked when they float and the dough is firm to the touch.
10. 10

    Serve the dumplings warm, drizzled with a little heavy cream and sprinkled with sugar, if desired.

    💡 Ammattilaisvinkit: These are also delicious served with a fruit compote or a dollop of extra skyr.
