My mom made these a lot when I was much younger, she liked making them with Sauerkraut or in a chicken soup. She would always make extra and then fry them in butter with cut up bread that was buttered on each side as well and called them French dumplings and toast.

also I add parsley flakes for color and a touch of popcorn butter flavor powder to taste, Drop 1 tablespoon at a time into your stew, the fresher the flour the better.

My mother always made these with either chicken stew or beef stew. Drop the dumpling dough onto the top of simmering stew, cover and don't peek for 15 minutes. Thanks!
