Steps:
- Begin heating your soup combined with the water in a LARGE pot with a tight fitting lid.
- Combine your dry ingredients in a medium sized mixing bowl.
- Stir lightly to mix, being careful not to lose any over the side.
- Create a hollow in the middle of your dry ingredients.
- Add your milk to the hollow.
- Add your oil to the milk.
- Using a fork, mix the ingredients until a sticky dough is formed.
- Do not overmix.
- When your soup is boiling, quickly add spoonfuls of the dough until the entire bowlful is in the pot. Make sure to move quickly - the faster you get them in, the fluffier they'll be.
- Quickly cover the pot with the tight fitting lid.
- Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 10 minutes.
- NEVER lift the lid before 10 minutes has passed or you will have dense dumplings instead of light, fluffy ones.
- After 10 minutes, remove from heat and serve.
- Dumplings will be very hot.
CHICKEN AND DUMPLING SOUP
Steps:
- For the soup stock: Combine the chicken, peppercorns, bay leaves, garlic, thyme, carrot chunks, celery chunks, quartered onion, parsnip chunks, 3 sprigs dill and 3 sprigs parsley in a large pot. Add cold water to cover by 2 inches (about 5 quarts). Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Simmer, uncovered, until the chicken is very tender, for at least 1 1/2 hours (or up to 2 hours if you have the time. The longer the better!) Add more water, as needed, skimming off scum (there won't be much) and, if desired, some fat.
- Carefully strain the stock, discarding everything except for the chicken. (You should have 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 quarts of stock.) Set the chicken aside to cool briefly while you put together the rest of the soup. Return the strained stock to the pot and bring it to a simmer. Add the sliced carrot, sliced celery, chopped onion, sliced parsnip, chopped dill, chopped parsley and the salt. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Simmer, covered, for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the dumplings: In a small saucepan, bring the butter and 3/4 cup water to a boil. Remove from the heat and stir in the flour. Let cool for a few minutes so it's not so hot that it will cook the eggs, then whisk in the salt, sugar, nutmeg and the eggs, one at a time, until incorporated into a slightly lumpy thick batter. (It'll take a little work to whisk in the eggs.)
- Drop heaping teaspoons of the dumpling mixture into the simmering soup, then cover and cook until the vegetables are tender and the dumplings are cooked through; begin checking for doneness at 15 minutes.
- Pull the chicken meat off the bones and chop into bite-sized pieces. Season it with salt, then add it to the soup along with the ground black pepper. Taste and add more salt as needed. This is important: The amount of salt in a chicken soup can mean the difference between unappetizing chicken tea and the elixir of bubble love that it should be. So don't skip this step, and don't rush it, either. Taste your soup, and if it doesn't make you smile reflexively, add more salt, about a 1/2 teaspoon of it, and give it a few good stirs so it can dissolve. Taste and repeat, as needed, until it tastes good.
- Serve, garnishing with fresh parsley.
