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.^[

Yeah! Apple dumplings, pork/chicken dumplings. More kinds I’m not thinking of I’m sure.  It’s a big category. 

And then there’s dumplins…

I always remember stopping into Cooking From Scratch outside Rolla, MO. Very good home cooking place that has since closed. The special that day was Chicken and Dumplins’. Sounded good so I ordered Chicken and Dumplings, with a G.

The waitress took a moment to correct my pronunciation. I opted not to pull a Mrs. McAwee (Three Trails Elementary, sixth grade, a stickler) and correct her correction. Never a good idea to quarrel with your food server before the food arrives. 

They were the flat kind, and pretty darn good. Just needed that G to be perfect 🤪

Ah, but what about liver dumplings?  Beef liver, ground pork, eggs, milk, flour, onion, use a spaetzle maker to make the little squiggles to dump  into boiling water.  Ste. Genevieve County specialty.  And the only way I can stomach liver.

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 should have said Slick Dumplings then. For your information there are many different Dumplings. And the English have always been full of it and wanting to take credit, where credit is not due.

Interesting. I’d put that in the ‘Would try, wouldn’t buy’ category.

Slick isn’t a term I hear often. Interesting all the regional/cultural differences. 

Who gets credit for the flat dumplings?

The recipe I use is the stewed hen recipe from the Commander's Palace in NOLA...If you have the Commander's Palace Cook book, look it up. Liver Dumplings are pretty good. We usually order some at the Anvil in St. Gen when we go to Hawn State Park but we have not been there in along time.

I've tried liver about five different ways and I just cannot like it. Maybe these would be the way.

                  There is no way except in a wad on a hook waiting for a channel cat to bite in my younger years.
