People who make dumplings will argue that their way is the best way. I've made roll-and-cut dumplings, dumplings out of biscuits and drop dumplings. I like them all. I've really been needing "hot stuff" lately because I've been so cold and chicken & dumplings sound just right! This recipe is delicious...I say the sugar makes a huge difference.
What you'll need:
- 3 c flour
- 1 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 c + 2 Tbl milk
- 1 egg
- 4 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 3 tsp sugar
- 1/4 c vegetable oil
Cost:
all purpose flour - $1.25/bag
milk - $1.78/gallon
eggs (18 count) -$1.47
baking powder - $1.14
sugar - $2.42/bag
vegetable oil (regular) - $2.28
Total - $1.02
I like the thicker drop dumplings like this compared to the thin "pastry" style my grandmother used to make.
