INSTRUCTIONS
Recipe by: Food and Wine In a large saucepan, melt the butter. Add the
onion and cook over moderate heat until softened, about 3 minutes.
Stir in 8 cups of the chicken stock and bring to a simmer. Season
with salt and white pepper to taste.
Meanwhile, in a medium saucepan, combine the remaining 1 cup stock
with the thyme, nutmeg, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a pinch of white
pepper. Bring to a boil over high heat. Remove from the heat and beat
in the flour until thoroughly blended. Let the mixture cool slightly,
then beat in the eggs, one at a time.
Drop tablespoons of the dumpling mixture into the simmering soup and
cook until the dumplings begin to firm, about 5 minutes. Remove from
the heat, cover the saucepan and set aside to steam the dumplings for
3 minutes before serving.
