Dumplings

I love making dumplings too, probably a standard among Americans. A cool thing I recently learned about was Matzoh Balls. The mix is available at Giant and I'm sure doing it from scratch wouldn't be too hard. They have a heavy personality but are flavorful without seasoning, and if you add seasoning like nutmeg, they'll be very interesting indeed.

Funny thing. I walk through Walmart and I have no desire for weeks afterward to have dumplings. Even though I always have wanted to try making chicken and dumplings.
 
:ohwell: Eh... it sounded good, but the texture was kinda weird. I think it would have been better with onion instead of chives as well. Hardly noticed the nutmeg.

Experiment in progress......

I was wondering from reading the recipe how they'd taste. I have to say I use plain old Bisquick for my dumplings & they are just fantastic! Always come out great, too.

Yeah, for chicken and dumplings, Bisquick is always a good bet.

Christy's mom made the best chicken and dumplings I'd ever had. Imagine my surprise when I found out they were Bisquick. :lol:

Just sort of OT - about nutmeg. Ina Garten (Barefoot Contessa) adds nutmeg to her meatballs for spaghetti and meatballs. It's the best meatball and sauce recipe I've ever tried. I'm sold on nutmeg - I'll have to try it in fettucini next time I make it.
