GRANDMA HELEN'S POTATO DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• 1. First thing after you rice or finely mash your potatoes put them into the fridge. When the potatoes are cold, add the remaining ingredients. Mix in the order given above. Shape into small balls or drop by teaspoons full into a large pot of boiling water that has 1 teaspoon of salt added to it. Cover with a lid. When they come back to a boil stir to loosen them if some are stuck to the bottom. Replace lid and boil for 10 to 15 minutes. Test your dumplings by taking one out of water and cutting it in half. If the center is raw cook them a few minutes longer.
• 2. Grandma traditionally served this with pork roast and sauerkraut. She also used pork chops, beef roast, beef tongue, roasted pig's ears, pig's feet, ox tail, etc. Grandma Helen's were and still are the best potato dumplings I have EVER tasted!

POTATO SOUP WITH DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• 1. In a large pot put potatoes, celery, and onions with enough water to just cover vegetables. Bring water to boil and cook just until vegetables are tender, about 15-20 minutes.
• 2. Do not drain vegetables! Add the milk to veggies in pot and lower temp. to medium. You just want the soup to bubble at this point. Add the butter and thicken with the cornstarch and water until smooth. Check the broth and add additional salt and pepper if needed.
• 3. Put the whipped eggs, and onion powder, salt and pepper, and dried parsley in a bowl. I also add several spoons of water at this point as well. Mix all together.
• 4. Mix flour and baking powder and start adding to your egg mixture. Put in about 1/3 and whisk with the fork, it will be pretty wet at first but keep adding the flour mixture until it completely pulls away from side of bowl and sticks to fork tines.
• 5. Go to the soup pot and using a spoon - dipped in broth first - drop by spoonfuls onto top of soup until the bowl is empty. If there is "loose" flour in the bowl, just dump that in too as it will help to thicken the broth. Put the lid on the pot and DO NOT peek or remove lid for 12 minutes! Make sure the broth was just bubbling when you add the dumpling mix. You do not want the pot to boil over... I have done that and cleaning up the stove will make me very angry... :)
• 6. When you remove the lid, you should see a lot of little dumplings floating around on top. If you want it still thicker, just add more of the cornstarch/water. I also put in a couple more TBLS of butter.
• 7. We like this with a small salad to start and a French baguette with some more butter. Like Paula Deen says "ya'll can't ever have too much butter".
