    -------------------------------------
    Old Fashioned Chicken and Dumplings
    4 (about 7 oz) boneless chicken breasts
    2 teaspoons salt
    ½ stick butter, softened
    1 quart heavy cream
    1 teaspoon black pepper
    2 cups flour
    3 teaspoons baking powder
    3 tablespoons oil
    ¾ cup buttermilk
    2 tablespoons cornstarch
    1 cup cold water
    In a pot add enough water to generously cover the chicken breasts. Add the salt. Bring to a boil bring to a boil and cook until chicken is tender, about 25 minutes.
    Remove chicken and allow to cool enough to handle. Cut into bite-sized pieces.
    Return the chicken to the pot along with 6 cups of the chicken stock. Add the butter and the cream to the broth. Cook over medium heat cook, stirring occasionally, for a couple minutes. Stir in the chicken. Cook over for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
    Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl add the flour and baking powder, stir well Add the oil and buttermilk and begin stirring until it forms a soft dough (like the consistency of pie dough). Knead over about 4 - 5 times. Pinch off into balls (any size you prefer) and drop into the broth.
    Let the dumplings cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally
    Dissolve the cornstarch in the cold water and stir into the broth. Continue stirring the soup until it thickens slightly, about 3-5 minutes. Season, to taste. Serve warm.

    I’m watching this again... My Mom was an old school Kentucky raised gal and made hers like this..
    I also like good ole fashioned pinto beans and several people have told me they don’t like them and I say... you just haven’t had them fixed right... I’ve been eating more at home the last three years and I now find myself not wanting to eat out very often.. The less people that handle your food the healthier you’ll be.
    These are great recipes. God bless y’all...from Tennessee

    This is my new favorite kitchen tool! Day 1 I was going to pressure cook a meat ruclips.net/user/postUgkxG-7WiT7ocumjytOpHDFt632PL0pxXRAg and potato stew, decided I wouldn't eat it that night so I went with a slow cook so I could go to bed and put it away in the morning. I love that versatility! The sauté feature works great and adds tons of extra flavor to dishes, and I can easily sizzle meats in the bottom then deglaze for some restaurant worthy flavors.Big bonus - you can cook a whole frozen chicken in about 2 hours. Amazing! I've seen a couple videos, haven't tried it yet, but I will soon!

    Looks good. We take a whole chicken and cut it up and throw the backbone and all the other parts of the chicken in a pot to boil. After it’s done we role out the dumplings like my grandmother used to do, and then add a large can of cream of chicken. It gives it such a good taste. Never tried it like you do. My mom used to do it like that.

  • @MtnBadger

    It's ok, Kent, down here in Georgia, we call it "flarr" too... :)
    My folks also used this as a way to feed all those kids during the depression (9 in mom's, 14 in dad's families. They had to raise their own farm hands!). Needless to say, I grew up on it, as well.
    BUT one thing about being relegated to the south (U.S.) all the dumplings I find are flat or "not raised." Originally being from the southeast (of Canada) one big difference is raised dumplings. "Fluffy clouds of love..." my grandma called 'em.
    Boil down your chicken in enough water to cover by an inch or so, *carefully* separate the meat (we stuck with a whole bird) then make a basic biscuit dough, a little more salt & no sugar, (sugar's for shortcake biscuits, mmm).
    To make life easier, "Bisquick" or equivalent box mix works perfectly, it's just right.
    Season it with some poultry seasoning, salt, pepperandmaybesome garlicpowder, mix well and use a large serving spoon to portion out pieces that fill the cup of your hand. You'll get about six from a standard "Bisquick" biscuit recipe. You can make em a little smaller but six "fills" the top of the pot nicely and we were feeding three, at the time.
    Add'em to the pot with a cup of whole milk and toss in a couple bay leaves (tie a string to'em). The "flarr" from the dough should be enough to thicken the broth but you can add more later, if you like.
    *IMPORTANT*
    Cover the pot with a well fitted lid, set to a simmer and DO NOT lift the lid for 30 minutes!! No cheating! I cant tell you how many times I got my knuckles wrapped when reaching for the lid when I'd come home from school, growing and hungry. lol. "Its dumplings!" my mom would yell.
    When the mandatory torture period was up, we'd dish out a beautiful, softball-sized dumpling and a rasher of chicken into a big pasta bowl... wet and gooey outside, light and cakey inside... Break it open and ladle on some of that thick, gravy-like broth... Hoooo momma." Good stuff.
    After seconds, that batch of dumplings was gone but... It was nice to toss in a new batch the next time you reheat the leftovers, perfectly made a new batch of dumplings. :)
    If you (and the viewers) have never tried properly made, tender, raised dumplings (little, flat dough balls floating around "ain't real dumplings." lol) then you're in for a treat, my friends... Southern Canada style.
    Try'em, you'll like'em!

    I was always taught that you're dumplings were supposed to be light and fluffy and at the top and you're supposed to shred the chicken along with the cream and you know then that way when you eat it you know that it's been deboned and it's full of savory goodness plus you know but the dumplings are supposed to be light and fluffy so they absorb some of the juice as you eat at least that's the way I was taught

We aren't that different really, we are all Americans. It would do us all some good to remember that from time to time and appreciate what we have a little more, and each other.

Grandmother of mine used to cook it into mild paprika flavored creamy but not thick sauce and pour it over small gnocchi or giant macaroni. Usually she buyed cheap one to feed her 6 kinds. Real difference is that she put in it spoon of paprika and instead of dumplings you have smaller version gnocchi. 😜

      Remember visiting my uncles ranch in Holly Colorado, right on the Kansas border. The wind was annoying and all the tress bent east. Aggravated I asked him, "Luther, does this wind ever stop?" He took a pensive pose, put his hand on his chin and answered. " Can't say if it ever stops, I just know I've been here 48 years and it hasn't stopped in that time". Great memory. LOL.

      vast expanses of land great for fishing and hunting.
      .
      And if your a romantic... a great place to see the sun rise ... or sun set
      .
      The wind at times can be... relentless..
      .
      The storms ... a tapestry of lightning.. against clouds...
      .
      Vast tracts of land with few people...
      .
      Hot humid summers..
      Bitter cold and windy winters...
      .
      To know Kansas .. is to .... shhhhhh hate the place ..
      Don’t want no tourists here... harsh ..

My wife is an amazing cook, but when she served it up I was dumbfounded, I looked at her and asked her what it was….it was more like chicken noodle soup than anything else; granted she used gnocchi instead of true dumplings, but there was no thickness to it. It was good but the recipe lied to call it chicken and dumplings, I have found our recipe here, Thank you Kent. I don’t need to make yours yet to know it’s going to be amazing. God bless you sir.

    Those look great, nothing I love more than chicken and dumplings. My great-grandmother who settled in Sentinel, OK in the late 1800's made them, and passed her recipe down to my grandma, then to my mother. The original recipe was exactly like what you are making. She used pheasant a lot because it was readily available, but as time passed chicken became the standard. At some point the recipe changed, the only difference was rolling out the dough to 1/8" thick, cutting it up in squares, and dropping them into the slow boiling pot one at a time. But I like it both ways. That broth is so good. When I was going to OSU in Stillwater, after a visit home I'd bring back a bunch of my mom's C&D's and they were the hit of the dorms. Everybody wanted some. We weren't allowed to cook in our rooms but we could have a coffee maker, and I'd heat them up in that. She also made homemade dill bread, and it went with them perfectly. I learned to make them myself and still do to this day. When the temps go into the single digits here in Colorado it's my go-to comfort food. As always, thanks so much Kent.

      the idea is to make a more flavorful base than simply using the water you boiled your chicken in. Chicken soup made the same way would probably taste bland and insult more than a few grandmas. There is no wrong way with this, it's a great old recipe from Kent, it's beagle approved, but I can't help but think it would taste better with said improvements. Also consider today's mass produced birds may benefit from such treatment, verses back in the day the more flavorful farm raised free range birds our ancestors had access to.

    I learned this from my grandmother. Ingredients, chicken, dumplings, salt and pepper. To thicken I flour them before dumping. You are correct pinch don’t roll. They will be so much more tender and cook better versus compacted. I’m grandfather now and I make this for the kids. It’s how I say, I love you.

    I adore your enthusiasm, honestly this is just how i remember this recipe prepared by my father who lived through the depression and shared the magic of making something from nothing.
    I honestly wish you could teach early American history, complete with the chuck wagon and that boiling pot. God Bless you and your brilliant and so talented wife for the amazing glimpse you share in every episode of a simpler, happier time when character and honor guaranteed a happy and fulfilling life.

    I think chicken thigh would be better than chicken breast.

      My grandma used chicken legs all the time, but that's just because it was cheaper so we could get more of it. She had a lot of mouths to feed and while it might not have cost much, damn but those were the times I ate the best in my life.

      Definitely get more flavor from legs or thighs. That's what I use

    One of my favorites that my grandma used to make. She used a fowl...not chicken breasts and it took hours to cook. She called it an "old bird" but the flavor was amazing, well worth the time.

    Use chicken THIGHS, bone & skin included! It makes the broth MUCH tastier and healthier, too. I use Bisquick to make the dumplings and it thickens the broth automatically.

      Made your recipe. Very good eatin's. Used 4 huge thighs, half the price. Removed fat. And removed bones when chicken cooked. Loved your pie dumplings. We use a Paul Bunyan logging chain for wind gauge.
