Cooking time: 1 hour 10 minutes

Ingredients for the potato dough

Ingredients (4 servings)
500 g Potatoes, floury
45 g Butter, very soft
170 g Flour
50 g Gries
2 piece(s) Egg yolk
Salt
Vanilla
Grated zest of 1 lemon

Ingredients for the Vanilla-Infused peaches

Ingredients (4 servings)
250 ml Water
150 g Sugar
1 piece(s) Vanilla pod
5 piece(s) Peaches

Ingredients for the finishing touches, per Serving

Ingredients (4 servings)
1 tablespoon(s) Butter
2 tablespoon(s) Poppy seed
1 tablespoon(s) Sugar
0,5 teaspoon(s) Vanilla sugar

Preparation

  • Boil the potatoes with their skins until soft, drain the water and leave them to let off ­steam in the oven at a low heat (approx. 140 °F / 60 °C) for about 30 minutes. Peel and press through a potato ricer. Mix in the ­remaining ingredients and knead into a dough; let the dough rest in the refrigerator for about 1 hour.
  • Form little finger-shaped noodles by hand and place them on a floured kitchen towel; they should be no more than ½ inch (1 cm) in diameter and 2 inches (4 to 5 cm) long.
  • Bring 1 cup (250 ml) of water to a boil, add the sugar and the contents of the scraped ­vanilla pod, boil briefly, then add the finely sliced peaches and steep for 25 minutes.
  • Cook the noodles in lightly salted, gently boiling water. Just before they are done, melt the butter in a pan until it foams. Take the pan off the heat, drain the noodles and toss them in the butter. Stir in the poppy seeds, sugar and vanilla sugar and serve hot. Dust with powdered sugar if desired, and serve the ­vanilla-infused peaches separately.
