Dumpling Day
November 3rd, 2009
Chad loves chicken and dumplings. I like it too but it isn’t my favorite thing to make. A blog reader sent me a recipe using canned biscuits and they were so much easier and so much quicker but Chad declared that he liked them better the way I had always made them. One thing the blog reader’s recipe said was to pressure cook the chicken. I had always boiled the chicken. Pressure cooking it was so much better and produced a much richer broth. So, Friday the chicken was cooked in the pressure cooker. No . . not one of my chickens!
Saturday the dumplings were made. You’d think being a quilter, I could cut my strips more evenly.
They sit to dry out so they’ll be kinda chewy. Then they get flipped and sprinkled with flour and they sit some more.
Then they go into simmering broth. They cooked. They were good. I forgot to take pictures. How in the world do people remember to take photos of each step along the way? I cannot! I did remember to get a picture of the leftovers!
