Homemade Bone Broth

All you need to create this health-packed broth is the bones or carcass leftover after roasting. The vegetables are included as optional additions, but are hardly required. A splash of vinegar will assist in bringing the nutrients out of the bones.

Chicken & Slicker Dumplings

These are almost fluffy noodles rather than biscuit dumplings. I grew up with the biscuit style drop dumplings, but I learned to make these Southern style dumplings from my husband’s darling former landlady and they are adored by many. They come together quickly. If you do not have a rolling pin, try using a wine bottle or simply press & pat the dough flat. It is a forgiving recipe, so enjoy the process without being intimidated. The buttermilk gives a lovely flavor to the dumplings, but the broth, if cold, works in a pinch for a dairy-free choice. Substitute coconut oil for the butter.
