True comfort food...kids love it!! My Moms recipe for old world German Hard dumplings, with chicken. I don't like soft airy or mushy dumplings...these fit the bill nicely...
Ingredients
- 2 cups all purpose flour shopping list
- 2 eggs shopping list
- milk shopping list
- onion powder shopping list
- garlic powder shopping list
- white pepper shopping list
- chicken bouillion shopping list
- whole cut up chicken shopping list
- water shopping list
- salt shopping list
- small diced onion shopping list
- 2 celery stalks cut into 1/4" pcs shopping list
- 2 carrots cut into 1/4" pcs shopping list
How to make it
- Boil chicken in salted water until tender and falling off bones
- Save water, ('you'll use it for boiling dumplings') and bring to a boil
- Put chicken on large dish and cut off meat and transfer meat back to boiling water.
- Add 2-4 tsp bouillion (2 tsp per quart of water) or 2-4 cubes of bouillion to water
- add onion, celery and carrots
- To make dumpling batter: In separate bowl mix flour, 1 tsp salt, 1/2 tsp white pepper, 1/2 tsp onion and 1/2 tsp garlic powder, 1 tsp chicken bouillion granules and 2 eggs and milk as needed.
- Mix well until it gets to noodle/pasta consistency, sticky/dry, add more flour or milk to attain consistency. Not critical, but not sticking to the sides of the bowl either.
- with a tablespoon drop full spoons of batter into the boiling water until all batter is used up. boil about 15 minutes
- dumplings will not fluff up or rise and they will be firm/hard to the bite, yummy and delicious!
- Serve chicken and dumplilngs in bowls along with a nice green salad and nice Crusty Rye Bread!
- These dumplings are equally good with a boiled pork /sauerkraut or beef roast dinner substituting beef bouillion when used with beef.

This is nice! I like my dumplings hard, too! Somehow, that sounds a little bit naughty!
