#### 2. **Mix the Dumpling Dough**
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, milk, and salt until you have a soft, sticky dough. It should be thick but spoonable.
#### 3. **Cook the Dumplings**
Drop spoonfuls of dough into a pot of gently boiling salted water. Simmer until the dumplings float and are cooked through (about 5–7 minutes). Drain and toss gently with the cabbage mixture.
#### 4. **Combine and Serve**
Gently fold the dumplings into the sautéed cabbage. Let everything cook together for a few minutes so the flavors meld. Serve hot and enjoy the comforting taste of tradition.
