Chicken & Dumplins (Grosz) Recipe
Recipe Ingredients
1 (3 to 4 lb) hen, cooked & deboned
1 (i used 4 thighs for just us)
2 cup flour
1 tsp salt
1/2 cup shortening
1/2 to 1 cup cold water
2 cup chicken broth
2 cup milk
1/2 cup butter
1 salt & pepper to taste
Recipe Preparation
These are my directions on how to put together: Boil chicken in
seasoned water, I added 1/2 tsp garlic powder, some liquid
smoke..just a dribble, and salt and pepper and boiled the chicken
till tender...about an hour. Scoop chicken out and drain, then take
and discard skin...put in freezer to cool while you make dumplins. To
the chicken water, pour in one can or so of evaporated milk...skip
the butter, enough fat from the chicken...let simmer while you make
the dough. put flour and shortening with a dash of baking powder in
large bowl and cut together till crumbly. I used my large whisk since
I've lost my pastry cutter many moons ago...then add just enough cold
water as you need it for a nice soft, non sticky dough. Roll out on
floured surface and roll into thin sheet(s). Cut with sharp knife
into squares. Get your soup boiling and drop the squares in one at a
time...DON'T STIR after adding dumplins..just press. em down a little
and keep adding em in. Let slow boil for about 20 mins.. add the
chicken that you've chopped while the dumplins was cooking...and
EAT!!! Hubby doesn't like garlic, but he sure scarfed these down in
no time!!! You can add veggies now and then..my daughter always liked
this recipe with chopped broccoli..go figure!

Food Tips of the Week
Diet tipsAt the start of a diet, people most certainly look at food store and big brand food items labelled 'low in fat'. To do this is far too often a miscalculation, in that an item could be significantly reduced in fats, but nevertheless elavated in calories and carbs.
Some lower carbohydrate diet tips:
* You can make really good smoothies by using reduced carbohydrate yogurt. Ok, well, its not technically cooking, but if you must have smoothies you can make them with low carbohydrate yogurt and your favorite fruit. Clearly, you will need to make sure you use only fruit that is low in carbohydrates and make use of the whole fruit as the fiber is beneficial.
* Make reduced carbohydrate breadcrumbs for breaded foods. Although you can possibly buy reduced carbohydrate bread crumbs, you can also make them by using low carbohydrate bread. All you have to do is toast the low carbohydrate bread in a gas or electric oven on a sheet of cookie paper. When it is well toasted, whizz it in the food processor using a coarse blade. Keep in an airtight jar.
