  2. 2

    Toast bread crumble, finely crumble. Knead well with egg yolk and egg. Stir the mixture into the foamy butter cream. Sift flour over it and stir in quark. If the mixture is still too soft, knead in breadcrumbs.

  3. 3

    Form the mixture into dumplings, filling each with a poppy seed ball. Place dumplings in plenty of boiling salted water and poach over low heat in simmering water for 10-12 minutes. In the meantime, caramelise the sugar until golden, add apple juice and lemon juice (caution: hot steam).

  5. 5

    Drain the dumplings well and toss in the poppy seed butter. Spread pears with some syrup on plates. Sprinkle with pistachios. Dust the edges of the plate with icing sugar.
