Recipe - Slick Dumplings

2 cup Flour
1 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Baking powder
3 tablespoon Shortening
Three fourths cup Milk

My mother made wonderful fluffy dumplings with chicken, but both my brother
and I would vote for my dad to make these dumplings; much to my mother's
dismay. We liked the chewy dumplings best! This was more than 60 years ago!

Sift flour, salt, and baking posder together: Rub in shortening with knife
or finger tips. Add milk to make a soft dough. Roll out very, very thin on
a floured board. Cut in squares. Drop separately into gently boiling liquid
(chicken stock etc.) and cook 15 minutes. Do not cover. Posted to Recipe
