MARTHA'S CHICKEN SOUP WITH PARSLEY DUMPLINGS



Martha's Chicken Soup With Parsley Dumplings image

This recipe came from a Martha Stewart magazine.The dumplings in this are unusual, with lemon zest, and cornmeal. I love them, but remember that the taste and texture of the dumplings is different from standard dumplings. I add more parmesan cheese to the mixture, but I will post it as it is in the recipe. I used the shallot the first time, but it is just fine without, or replaced with a minced onion. I cook the chicken first, but the recipe doesn't specify.

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons Kosher salt, plus more to taste
4 large eggs
1/4 cup chopped parsley
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
  • In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. In another bowl whisk together 2 cups water and eggs. Pour the liquid into the center of the flour mixture. Whisk until the smooth loose dough forms. Mix in parsley until well incorporated. Let rest for 15 minutes.
  • Place a large colander or strainer from a pasta pot over a pot of boiling water. You do not want the colander/strainer to touch the boiling water it should be suspended a couple of inches over the water. Add half of the dough to the colander and using a rubber spatula press the dough through the holes while holding it over the boiling water, allowing the dough fall through holes into the water. Let cook for two minutes then remove the dumplings with a slotted onto a sheet pan. Repeat with remaining dough (Reserve 2 cups of cooked dumplings for Round 2 Recipe German Dumpling Soup.)
  • In a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, add half the butter. When it is melted, add half of the dumplings to the skillet, season with salt and pepper to taste and cook until they are golden and slightly crispy in places, about 5 minutes. Repeat with remaining butter and dumplings. Transfer to platter and serve immediately.

IONE'S PARSLEY DUMPLINGS



Ione's Parsley Dumplings image

My Grandma Ione always seemed to have a huge pot of soup or stew bubbling on the stove, and these little gems would be floating on top. If there were any left, they were even better the next day. This dumpling is best suited for a soup or stew with substantial liquid. After a few folks thought these were a little dry, I added the option to add 1 tsp of milk if necessary. You do want a soft dough, but not wet. Also I noted to use large eggs which I had not specified before. Thank you for your suggestions :)

CHICKEN STEW FRANCAIS WITH PARSLEY DUMPLINGS



Chicken Stew Francais with Parsley Dumplings image

This chicken stew is fabulous! The broth is salty but slightly sweet and thick. I'm not sure if it is the tarragon or the white wine that give the sweetness. The carrots and potatoes add so much to this dish. And I loved the dumpling addition. This will be great on a cold winter night!

Tips:

  • Use fresh parsley: Fresh parsley has a more intense flavor than dried parsley, so it's best to use it whenever possible.
  • Chop the parsley finely: Finely chopped parsley will distribute its flavor more evenly throughout the dumplings.
  • Use a combination of bread crumbs and flour: This will help the dumplings to hold their shape and prevent them from becoming too dense.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing will make the dumplings tough, so mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the dumplings rest before cooking: This will allow the bread crumbs to absorb the liquid and help the dumplings to hold their shape.
  • Cook the dumplings in a simmering liquid: Boiling water will cause the dumplings to break apart, so simmer them gently instead.
  • Serve the dumplings immediately: Dumplings are best served hot, so eat them as soon as they are cooked.

Conclusion:

Parsley dumplings are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that can be served with a variety of meals. They are especially good with soups, stews, and casseroles. With their fresh parsley flavor and light, fluffy texture, parsley dumplings are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
