find it most useful. I also wish we
could have some recipes with less
sugar and butter for these war days.
Here is recipe for dumplings
which Mrs. M. w. M. of Columbia,
S. c., wrote for:
Two cups flour, teaspoons baking
powder, l teaspoon salt, table
spoons melted shortening, cup milk
2 egg yolks.
Mix fat with beaten egg yolks and
milk. Stir in sifted dry ingredients
Qightly). Cook 10 minutes with
cover off, then 10 minutes with cover
on. Serve Immediately. have used
this recipe for over 20 years and
have never had a failure. I often
use large egg in place of the
yolks. For a small family half the
recipe is enough. These are always
light and fluffy. I cook them on tor
of stew
