Steps:
- In a large casserole or stew pot, melt the butter over medium high heat.
- Once it has stopped sizzling, brown the chicken, gizzards (if they are included), and chopped onion until golden, turning occasionally, about 12 minutes.
- Sprinkle the flour over the chicken pieces and turn them to absorb the flour.
- Add the celeriac, parsley roots, carrots, whole white onions, peppercorns, and bay leaf.
- Cover with the boiling water, and bring to just below a boil.
- Reduce the heat to very low, using a diffuser if necessary, and simmer until the meat is nearly falling off the bone and the vegetables are tender, about 2 hours.
- At no time should the broth ever boil, otherwise the chicken will be tough.
- Add the peas and cook for 10 more minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper and add the lemon juice.
- While the stew is simmering, prepare the dumplings.
- Drop the dough by the tablespoon on top of the stewing chicken, making sure the balls don't sink into the gravy.
- Cover and cook for 20 minutes without looking.
- Serve immediately.
- Makes 6 servings.
- TO MAKE THE DUMPLINGS: Stir together the eggs, flour, vegetable oil, salt and caraway seeds.
- NOTE: Celeriac and Parsley Root are wonderful vegetables for a stew.
- Both, though, are big, bulbous, root-like vegetables with lots of ugly, hairy-looking rootlets coming off the central portion.
- The best celeriac is that of medium size, without secondary corms, and with a modest clump of leaves.
- Peel celeriac before using.
- Parsley root is grown specifically for large roots.
- The texture and density of the root are similar to those of celeriac.
- They store well.
- Peel parsley root before using.
