Steps to Make Yeast Starter Homebrew

Yeast Dumplings

Home brewers often toss a packet or vial of yeast into their beer without much thought to the quantity needed.

Recipe Summary Yeast Dumplings

For everyone who likes a thick, heavier dumpling, not the fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth kind from a can, this recipe is for YOU!! These are very easy to make, and taste the way you remember your Grandma's dumplings! They're also great in a chicken and dumplings recipe.

Ingredients | Yeast Starter Homebrew

½ cup butter

½ cup milk

1 (.25 ounce) envelope active dry yeast

½ cup water

3 eggs

½ cup sugar

1 teaspoon salt

4 ½ cups all-purpose flour

1 (32 ounce) carton chicken broth

Directions

Place milk and butter in a small saucepan, and simmer over medium heat until butter melts. Remove from the heat and allow to cool.

Dissolve the yeast in the warm water placed in a small bowl. Set aside.

Combine the eggs, sugar, and salt in a large mixing bowl, and mix until thoroughly blended. Gradually stir in the flour, alternating with milk and yeast mixtures. Gather the dough into a ball. Cover the bowl with a cloth, and let the dough rest 20 minutes.

Pour the chicken broth into a large pot. Bring broth to a boil over medium-high heat.

Meanwhile, sprinkle flour over a clean board or countertop. Turn the dough out onto the board and knead lightly until smooth and satiny, about 3 minutes. Add a little more flour if the dough is sticky. Roll out the dough to be about 1/2 inch thick. Use a butter knife to cut dough into 2 inch wide strips, and place strips into the boiling broth. Dumplings will initially sink, then rise to the surface when cooked, about 10 minutes. Remove dumplings from the broth with a slotted spoon, and drain on a plate.
