Pat's Dumplings Recipe

Ingredients

2 cups all-purpose flour

3 tablespoons shortening

1 teaspoon salt

¼ cup water

Main Dish

Directions

Step 1

Mix together flour and salt. Cut shortening into flour/salt mixture using a pastry blender fork or two knives. Stir in water to form a soft dough.

Step 2

On a floured surface roll out dough very thin with a rolling pin. Cut into 1 inch wide strips (I use a pizza cutter but a sharp knife works also). Tear 1 inch long pieces of dough from these strips and drop into simmering broth.

Step 3

Cook 10 minutes with the pot lid off then 10 minutes more with the lid on. Serve with the broth and chicken meat if using.
