This sounds like a recipe that my Grandmother makes over the holiday season. This is so good! Thanks for sharing :)


My Granny's dumplings were like this. I remember my sister getting her 5th helping and looking innocent: "This is just my 2nd helping!"


My mother in law made these and they are wonderful....She made the best dumplings ever...all you needed was dumplings, lots of juice to sop the corn bread with...Thanks for this post....


You are right, true comfort food. Chicken & dumplings is MY comfort food. I still can't make them quite as good as my grandmother did. And don't even get me started on her sour dough biscuits. I can't even come close!


Linebb, you are making me EXTREMELY hungry tonight - man, does this sound good...makes me want to go back in time - nice post!
