This recipe comes from Jeanie Gibertson, the restaurant manager, at the request of the of the Journal Sentinel Milwaukee. I would leave the food coloring out. Prep and cook time are guesstimates as they are not listed. Ingredients:
2 quarts water |
1/4 cup chicken base |
1/4 cup onion, chopped |
1/2 cup celery, chopped |
3/4 cup carrot, chopped |
3/4 lb boneless skinless chicken breast, cooked, diced |
1 tablespoon yellow food coloring |
6 eggs, beaten |
4 -5 cups flour |
1 teaspoon salt |
Directions:
1. Using a 2 gallon soup pot, combine water and chicken base. Heat to mix. 2. Add onion, celery, carrots and chicken. 3. Add food coloring, if using, and bring to a boil. 4. Continue to boil while you make dumplings. 5. To make dumplings, gradually add flour and salt to beaten eggs, mixing with a wooden spoon. 6. Continue to add flour until firm yet sticky dough is formed. 7. When vegetables are tender, transfer dumling dough to a plate. 8. With a plate near the boiling broth, cut off bits of dough the size of small eggs with a large serving spoon; drop into broth. 9. Cook until dumplings float to the top. |
