Using two medium mixing bowls, separate the egg whites from the egg yolks.
Beat the egg whites with the salt until stiff.

In a seperate mixing bowl combine farmers cheese with egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla. Use a fork to break apart the farmer's cheese, and then use a spoon to mix the ingredients together.

Add the beaten egg whites.

Then add the flour, and mix all the ingredients together until unified.

In a medium saucepan, boil about 4-5 cups of water with a ⅓ teaspoon of salt.

While the water is heating up, take half of the mixed dough and roll it out with your hands on top of a well-floured surface. It's alright if the dough is a bit moist. A light coating of flour from your working surface will make it easier to shape it into a log. Resist the temptetion to add more flour to the dough, otherwise your dumplings might turnout a bit dense.

Once rolled into a smooth log, using a knife, gently dent the surface on an angle from both ends so you end up with a diamond pattern.

Slice each dumpling on an angle so that you obtain a diamond-like shape. Repeat until all the dumplings are cut.

Boil the dumplings for about 2-3 minutes maximum. Avoid over-boiling them, otherwise they'll start to fall apart.

Serve them shortly after boiling with some butter, cinnamon, snd sugar sprinkled on top. You can also enjoy them with just melted butter or sour-cream.
