I'll just post this for any other dumpling lovers. I always use the basic half suet to self raising flour recipe for dumplings that is on the side of packs of atora suet. Today I was remembering the best ever dumplings I have ever made - in Spain aboard a boat in pre internet days. Why were they so light and pillowy but crispy on the outside I pondered. Eureka💡💡💡!! There was no SR flour available in Spain then so I just used the flour available and "levadura" ....which I presumed was baking powder. I was probably on the heavy handed side with the levadura as I had no idea how much to add.
Today I made dumplings as usual with S. R. flour but with an extra sprinkle of baking powder😊🙂😊🙂. YES! Amazing!Last edited by greenishfing; 25-01-2023, 07:39 PM.

Tonight will be salmon baked with lemon and capers, mashed potatoes, carrots, broccoli and parsley sauce. Mr GF was muttering about having stew and dumplings again but I put the last of the stew in the freezer last night so maybe tomorrow.Last edited by greenishfing; 26-01-2023, 09:46 AM.

We found swede!!!! Sooo hard to find here. They are considered animal fodder. (As were parsnips when we first came out here. Now they seem to have the lovely sweet varieties.)"Nicos, Queen of Gooooogle" and... GYO's own Miss Marple

Congratulations on the swede, Nicos.
Mr Snoop says he doesn't like dumplings. I'm utterly shocked. I thought they would be just his thing. So won't be making them this weekend.
Supper tonight has morphed, but less than usual. Salt cod on a bed of courgettes in tom sauce. One of my favourites.

If Mr GF still fancies stew and dumplings again he can have it today. If not roast chicken.
Nicos, I once knew a Frenchman who insisted that swede and parsnip were animal fodder. He had bad memories of having to eat " cattle food" in World War 2 and wouldn't even try them now.
Any chance of growing them where you live?
