I haven't been in this thread for a while so I missed the dumpling discussion.
We had chicken and dumplings when I was growing up and I have made them a few times. They were made by mixing up some biscuit mix and dropping that on the top of a thickened chicken stew.
The photos are from a Czech meeting I attended a few days ago. The first photo are one type of potato dumpling that one of the women made for the meeting. The second photo is bread dumplings, Czech style. The third photo shows my plate, with my dumplings on my plate, cut up, pork roast cut up, with kraut on top of dumplings and pork, and gravy over the top, how my family ate potato dumplings. Not everyone eats potato dumplings this way, but my family does. Our potato dumplings are made differently.
Tonight at 7pm central... Cooking channel will air the episode of AB Good eats "Don't be chicken of your dumplings". It re-airs at 11pm. The show discusses both types of dumplings.
Water bath won’t work! Low acid foods have to be pressure canned. Sounds good though!
Try making your fresh hard boiled eggs in your instant pot? Put on a rack ( I used a metal steamer, the kind that opens like a flower) bring up to pressure 5 min, hold steam another min and then let the steam off and put the eggs in an ice water bath until cool.
I found directions to do that but haven't tried yet! Thanks!
Nanny Patty,
I add my tomatoes in the last 30 minutes.
Have always water bath canner to can.
Why is my soup low acid?

The root veggies and meat mainly and corn. I’d be afraid of the water canner. Meat usually has to be pressure canned for over an hour to just be considered safe.
Don't have to worry about it.
I have just about ate 9 quarts of hamburger soup.
I cooked the meat first, then added it to soup.
Have enough left for lunch tomorrow will have to cook again Wednesday.
Pressure canners scare the be chiggers out of me.
Not so much water bath canners.

I'm putting some pork in the crockpot this morning, probably with apple juice, garlic, and seasonings. Making calabasitas and a fruit salad. I have to work late, so it'll be ready to serve when I get home.
I’ve used pressure canners for so long that I don’t even think about it anymore. I only had one that the stop cock spewed and that was my fault for cooking something that I was not supposed to that stopped up the cock. I had brown gravy on my ceiling for several years before I got it painted.
Interesting, Peanut! I hadn’t even thought about that. I had seen pictures of blue people after excessive doses of colloidal silver.

Potato dumplings with all the sides we had, are such a Czech cultural thing. If anyone in my family knows they are being served potato dumplings, they get almost giddy. They take work in the kitchen. In the Nebraska Bohemians group, it is probably the second most common topic, behind kolache, another well known Czech food item. People are always on the search for a potato dumpling meal or kolache.
The woman who made the meal, also made kolache. I will share photos of some she made. There were poppyseed, cherry or apricot filling. It is always noted that if you are going to be drug tested anytime after eating kolache, you might want to avoid eating a poppyseed kolach (singular).

Back to a big salad with chicken, eggs, and only plain rice cakes!
anything with cherry filling and I'm there! lol
I refuse to make chocolate cupcakes without putting a dollop of cherry pie filling in the middle and then covering with more batter. good grief is that good lol
I have no idea what i'll eat for lunch.but Left over spaghetti and fresh garlic toast for supper tonight.

There's a place along the interstate near West, Texas, that sells Czech kolaches. Oh yeah. Tasty.

I love spaghetti with sauce.
I would have it once a week but the family has had it with me and spaghetti. I try tricking them by calling it other things or switching sauces works too (shrimp fettuccine, shrimp linguine, etc)

Try brownies with the cherry pie filling on the bottom!!
I had wings thawed in the fridge, intended to make lemon pepper wings and fries, had lemons and plenty of fresh cracked pepper.
I was exhausted after finishing up the media cabinet and putting in all the dvds and cds. Just the doors required 32 small wood screws and 4 machine screws. It wasn't complicated... just time consuming.
So, I had a very good frozen dinner. A healthy choice "Korean-inspired beef power bowl". It was great! Plenty of tender beef and crunchy veggies. The box gave it a 4 out of 5 peppers on the spicy scale, about a half pepper hotter than I normally make asian food, but yummy.

Made those lemon pepper wings tonight with mashed potatoes, a celery stick, sweet tea and a piece of pecan pie afterward.
I want to try lemon pepper wings in our air fryer.
That thing makes the best fried wings. Nice and crispy and it doesn't take long even from frozen wings.

Not scared of water bath canners.
But am scared of pressure canner.
Seen the top blow completely off.
Not just the cock but the whole dang lid.
My aunt was making spaghetti sauce when the lid blew.
The lid had enough force behind it that it embedded itself in the ceiling.
Had spaghetti sauce that had to scraped off the ceiling.
My grandpa was quite upset.

I’d be scared,too. But, that’s a rare occurrence. The only time I’ve ever had any problems is when I decided to cook something that the cooker direction specifically said not to. Gravies and sauces are some of the things that shouldn’t be cooked in a PC because they can clog the release valve up.
