My mother made wonderful fluffy dumplings with chicken, but both my brother and I would vote for my dad to make these dumplings; much to my mother's dismay. We liked the chewy dumplings best! This was more than 60 years ago! Sift flour, salt, and baking posder together: Rub in shortening with knife or finger tips. Add milk to make a soft dough. Roll out very, very thin on a floured board. Cut in squares. Drop separately into gently boiling liquid (chicken stock etc.) and cook 15 minutes. Do not cover. Posted to Recipe Archive - 06 Apr 97 by ted by: ajewell@... on Apr 6, 9
