  • “A very easy, but nice way to make dumblings, that just might encourage the new cook to put away the can opener for awhile.”

  • “12/14/08: I added a little baking powder to the recipe to make them fluffy. These were delicious! Thank you Kat. 12/20/08: Much better when I followed the recipe.Thank you again!”

  • “Excellent dumplings I have made several times now. Think I am addicted! When I didn’t have a packet of soup stock,I used 2 or 3 teaspoons beef (or chicken) soup base mix and reduced the salt. I have also cooked the dumplings separately in broth or water. Then I place some dumplings in each soup bowl, then ladel hot soup on top. Yummy.Thanks for a ‘keeper’ Kat.”

  • “YUM! I’ve been looking for a dumpling to substitute for the one I grew up eating (it’s made with a certain flour from Ulm, Germany, and they just won’t ship MutschelMehl!).My whole family went to bed last night with happy dumpling-filled tummies. AND OH SO EASY! Thank you!- April in Austin (Texas)”
