About

This recipe comes from the Bohemian Café, a Eurocentric family restaurant that helped put Omaha, Nebraska, on the culinary map. Its take on a classic Czech soup uses chicken livers instead of the more traditional beef, and bread crumbs made from kaiser rolls serve as the base for the dumplings.
