Food and Drink The Official ****Chicken and Dumplings Thread**** - Page 4

To make dumplings I use flour, 1 egg and a cup of the chicken broth from the chicken I boiled the day before. I knead it and add flour till it has the right amount of stiffness. Then I roll them out to my desired thickness. Then I cut them into the desired size. In the mean time the broth has come to a boil. Always have to add some low sodium Swanson's chicken broth to the broth but after it's brought to boil I start to drop the dumplings. One at a time and slowly so they don't stick together. Then when the dumplings are in I put in the chicken and let it cook for awhile longer and it's done. It's fantastic!

free this broth is amazing and it's from 2 split chicken breasts with skin on. No added broyh needed, just a generous serving of black pepper and a pinch of salt.

These definitely weren't noodle like dumplings, so flat may have been the wrong term. Definitely a thick tasty lump of flour. Awesome.

Never had chicken and dumplings either. Mainly because "Dumplings" is such an unappetizing word. Which is an odd psychological issue I've never fully outgrown.
