Chicken and Dumplins

[Maverickpro201]

Sunday I will be making 2 large pots of Chicken and Dumplins. The stiff rolled out ones. Oma's recipe. Son,  DIL and adult grand kids coming. They always want to take some home with them. I also have to have a couple of meals for my fishing, USMC buddy. Sure am looking forward to this. 

What is your favorite dumplin recipe.

I never made them myself, but my mom used to make them, she'd make the dumplings from scratch.  I do know an easy way to make dumplings, take soft flour tortillas, tear them into chunks and simmer them in the chicken part of the process.  It's surprising but the tortillas make excellent dumplings, and it sure is easier.

Yep. I’m partial to drop dumplings though I like flat ones too. I typically add a little parsley to the  batter

The hill I will die on is drop dumplings are true dumplings and flat ones are not. It's an irrational stand, but I have a moral obligation!

Cody will tell you we both know a man has to stand for something, or he'll fall for anything.

Definition

[edit]

Cooking dumplings in boiling water

The precise definition of a dumpling is controversial, varying across individuals and cultures.^[1][2] The term emerged in English by the 17th century, where it referred to a small lump of dough cooked by simmering or steaming.^[5][2] The definition has since grown to include filled dumplings, where the dough encloses a sweet or savory filling.^[6][5][2][7] Dumplings can be cooked in a variety of ways, including boiling, simmering, and steaming, and occasionally baking or frying; however, some definitions rule out baking and frying in order to exclude items like fritters and other pastries that are generally not regarded as dumplings by most individuals.^[
