Silesian dumplings (Polish: kluski śląskie,[1] Silesian: gumiklyjzy,[1] German: Schlesische Kartoffelklöße, Silesian German: schläsche Kließla[citation needed]) are potato dumplings traditional to the wider Silesia region of Poland and Germany[citation needed]. They are also called białe kluski[1][2] ("white dumplings").
The dumplings are listed by the Polish Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development as known regional or traditional foodstuff, with the Ministry chronicling versions from both the Silesian Voivodeship and the Opole Voivodeship.[2][1]
