In a small bowl, combine the flour and salt.

Add just enough water, one tablespoon at a time.

Knead the dough until the consistency is firm and not too sticky to make a stiff dough.

Let the dough rest for 10 minutes.

Pinch off about 1/2 ounce of dough and roll it between the palms of your hands to form a softly tapered cylindrical shape (spinners) or spherical shape dumplings.

The dumplings can be cooked in a pot of boiling salted water for about 5 to 7 minutes.
