I like to put these in lima bean soup and vegetable soup. They can also be used in chicken and dumpling recipes. They are also much cheaper to use than the Auntie Anne's dumplings. If you want to, you can freeze the uncooked dumplings for future use. I add the dumplings, in the last 15 minutes of cooking time when making a soup. Otherwise they cook too long.
Ingredients:
1 cup white flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 teaspoons shortening
Directions:
1. Place dry ingredients in a bowl.
2. Mix dry ingredients.
3. Cut shortening into dry ingredients.
4. Add water slowly, just enough to make a stiff dough.
5. If the dough is tacky, add a small amount of flour until it is stiff.
6. Roll dough out very thinly, about 1/2 centimeter thick.
7. With a sharp knife cut the dough into small squares, about 1 1/2 inch wide by 2 inches high.
