Hi everybody!

Does anyone know what is ''one stale roll''in the context of ingredients for a ''Spatzle'' noodles recipe?

Sorry for this stupid question, I just can't find what kind of roll is it, a roll of what?

Thank you

A roll is an individual "loaf" of bread, and "stale" means "old and dry", exactly the contrary of "fresh". Does it fit into your context?

(Back to cooking?)

Hi Pieanne,

I can't believe I didn't realize it is bread! But isn't roll a smaller bread, like a bun?

I'm not back to cooking, it's for my boyfriend's mother. One of the disadvantages of having translated a cookbook is that one has to translate all the recipes for all the fiends, relatives, acquaintances, and their relatives,too. Black Sheep [bah]

Thank you Pieanne

...all the fiends, relatives, acquaintances, and their relatives...

Your home life sounds a lot like mine, Antonia.

Don't worry, I chek the spelling before I give them my translatations.Smile [:)]
