Kuelové

Kuelové is a term that can refer to a few different things, primarily a type of traditional Czech and Slovak dumplings, or a surname.

As a culinary item, kuelové are small, often sweet, dumplings typically made from a dough that includes flour, eggs, and sometimes fruit or quark. They are usually boiled and then often served with a sweet topping such as fruit compote, melted butter, or poppy seeds. These dumplings are a common feature in Central European cuisine, particularly in regions with historical Czech and Slovak influences. The preparation can vary, with some recipes incorporating semolina or potato into the dough for a different texture.

As a surname, Kuelové is of Czech or Slovak origin. Like many surnames, its exact etymology can be complex and may be linked to a geographical location, a profession, or a personal characteristic of an ancestor. It is not an exceptionally common surname but is found among individuals of Czech and Slovak heritage.
