German Dumplings |
|
|
| My mother and grandmother made these, decades ago when I was a little kid, and they were a part of many a stew. |
|
| Ingredients: |
2 cups Original Bisquick™ Baking Mix
2/3 cup milk
|
|
| Procedures: |
Stir ingredients until soft dough forms.
Drop by spoonfuls onto boiling stew; reduce heat.
Cook uncovered 10 minutes. Cover and cook 10 minutes.
tip 1: Be sure the stew is boiling when you drop in the dumplings, so the bottoms cook well at the start. Lower the heat to finish slowly cooking the dumplings completely, so they aren’t soggy and doughy in the center.
tip 2: Accurately measure out the dry baking mix by spooning it into a standard dry-ingredient measuring cup, then leveling the top with a straight-edge metal spatula or knife; don’t scoop it or pack it down. This ensures the dough will be soft and just the right consistency to cook up light and fluffy rather than dense and chewy.
tip 3: Stir in a couple teaspoons of a favorite dried herb or a seasoning blend into the dry mix before adding the milk, or sprinkle the dumplings with grated Parmesan cheese at the end of cooking time for a savory finish.
