"Rivels"? More information, please. And is that a plural word or singular, as in one could have "a rivel"?

 Kind of a drop dumpling or spaetzel. Flour,egg, salt mixed until it comes together.  Drop teaspoon-ish size globs into slow boil/heavy simmering broth/soup.

 

My grams version is onion, celery, carrot sautéed in butter.  Add bacon, potatoes and chicken stock, simmer until everything is tender.  Then add the rivels and simmer until they are cooked.  Her's were very soft and pillowy. I make mine with much more chew,  she was always upset when hers turned out chewy .

 

I guess rivel would be singular. In my family rivels referred to both the soup and the rivel pieces themselves.
