KNOEPHLA SOUP (DUMPLING SOUP)

Steps:

• Combine water, potatoes, carrots, onion, celery, bouillon cubes, salt, and pepper in a large pot; bring to a low boil. Cook until vegetables are tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
• While the soup is cooking, mix the dumpling mixture. Combine 2 cups flour, warm water, eggs, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. Knead with your hands until dough is combined and a little sticky, adding more flour if necessary.
• Use scissors to cut 1/2-inch by 1-inch pieces dough directly into the soup; dumplings will swell as they cook so don't cut the pieces too big. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes.
• Add half-and-half and cook until heated through, about 5 minutes. Serve immediately.

KNOEPHLA (DAKOTA CHICKEN-AND-DUMPLING) SOUP RECIPE - (5/5)

Steps:

• Instructions 1. Pat chicken dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper. Heat oil in Dutch oven over medium heat until just smoking. Cook chicken, skin side down, until well browned, 6 to 8 minutes; transfer chicken to plate. Remove and discard skin. 2. Pour off all but 1 teaspoon fat and return pot to medium heat. Add onion and cook until just beginning to brown, 3 to 5 minutes. Add broth, chicken, and 1¼ teaspoons salt and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until chicken is tender, about 30 minutes. 3. Meanwhile, whisk flour, 1 teaspoon salt, ½ teaspoon pepper, and baking powder together in large bowl. Whisk eggs, ½ cup half-and-half, and water into flour mixture until thick batter forms. Transfer batter to gallon-size zipper-lock bag and refrigerate until ready to use. 4. Remove chicken from pot and set aside. Add potatoes to broth and simmer for 10 minutes. Cut ¼ inch off corner of batter bag. Pipe batter into simmering broth, snipping dumplings with moistened kitchen shears every ½ to ¾ inch as extruded. Simmer until dumplings float to surface, 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. 5. Shred chicken meat into bite-size pieces and add to soup. Remove soup from heat and stir in remaining ½ cup half-and-half. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve.
