Dorothy’s Dumplings

Old-fashioned, fluffy dumplings are a true comfort food.

1 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons cornstarch
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 egg, beaten
1/2 cup skim milk

In a medium bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, baking powder and salt. Stir in egg and milk; mix just until the dry ingredients are moistened.

Using a tablespoon, drop the dough onto a boiling stew or broth.

Cover tightly; boil gently 10 minutes or until dumplings are fluffy and no longer doughy underneath.

To get a tender, fluffy dumpling, be sure the stew is boiling and covered constantly. Serve immediately.
