  1. Drop dumplings couldn't be more simple, although are countless variations.
    This is the recipe I typically use.

    2 cups all-purpose flour
    4 teaspoons baking powder
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    3/4 cup milk

    MIx flour, baking powder, and salt in a mixing bowl. Add milk and stir to
    make a soft dough. Add a little more milk or flour, if dough is too thin or
    stiff. Drop dough from tablespoonfuls onto simmering stew. Cover stew tightly
    and cook for about 15 minutes without removing cover.

  2. Many thanks Wayne... I know how to make drop dumplings - but had never
    heard of the rolled kind before that thread. Do you have a recipe for
    them? I'm curious!

  4. Thanks, I will look for it. As you know by now, I'm at the mercy of
    Google for the time being and have not adapted very well to it.

    Sorry, but here 'til again. When do you get your new 'puter? What did you
    order?

    RECIPE NOTE: We don't use egg in our rolled dumplings. Eggs seem to make
    them more "noodle-like" and less "dumpling-like". :-)

    Stewed Chicken with Rolled Dumplings

    Recipe By :
    Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00
    Categories :

    Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
    -------- ------------ --------------------------------
    1 stewing chicken -- cut in pieces
    1 quart chicken broth
    1 pint water
    2 ribs celery -- cut in 2-inch lengths
    2 carrots -- cut in 2-inch lengths
    1 onion -- quartered, skin left on
    1 teaspoon whole peppercorns
    1 teaspoon whole coriander seeds
    1 teaspoon dried thyme
    1 bay leaf
    1/2 bunch fresh parsley
    ------------------------------------------

    1/3 cup butter
    1/2 cup flour
    2 cups milk
    ------------------------------------------

    3 cups flour
    1/4 cup shortening
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 cup milk

    Combine chicken, broth, water, vegetables, and seasonings in a large
    kettle. Bring to a slow simmer and cook for 1-1/2 to 2 hours, or until
    chicken is very tender. Remove from heat and allow to cool to lukewarm.

    Remove chicken from broth. Remove skin and bones from chicken, tearing
    meat into bite size pieces. Reserve in a separate bowl moistening the
    meat with some of the broth.

    Strain remaining broth and reserve. In the same kettle, Make a roux with
    the butter and flour and cook until lightly colored. Gradually stir in
    milk until smooth. Gradually stir in broth. Bring mixture to a slow boil
    and cook until slightly thickened.

    Meanwhile, combine flour and salt and cut shortening into flour mixture.
    Pour most of the milk into flour mixture, stirring with a fork. Work
    dough until smooth, adding additional milk as needed.

    On a well-floured surface, roll dough 1/8-inch thick or thinner and cut
    into strips 1 x 2 inches, or as desired. Drop half the dumplings, one at
    a time, into simmering broth. Cook 10-12 minutes, stirring frequently,
    then remove cooked dumplings to a plate. Repeat with 2nd half of
    dumplings.

    When second half of dumplings are cooked, return the first batch of
    dumplings and the chicken and broth to the pot, along with 1/2 cup chopped
    fresh parsley. Stir mixture gently to combine, and continue cooking over
    low heat until mixture has returned to a simmer.

    May be plated in the kitchen, or turned into tureen and served at table.
