Dump contents of food processor out into bowl, pour off/squeeze out as much water as possible, put back into food processor and liquefy. You want to get as much water out as possible so that you don't have to thicken it much later, but you don't want the potatoes to be super dry.

Knedliky has very little taste of its own except a light potatoeyness, and is particularly yummy with a good gravy or scrambled eggs ^^.

For Thanksgiving and Christmas my grandmother poured about a cup of water into the gravy from the roast beef, pork roll, or turkey to make an au jus, and put the dumplings in it, warming them in the oven for a little while so they absorb the gravy. It's SO GOOD. ^^.
