Good dumplings are very easy to make. You simply need flour, salt, sugar and good old fashion H2O. I learned to make this from my Mother when I was 12 years old.

You will need a round bowl of some sorts. The size will depend on how many people you're trying to feed…Pour your flour into the bowl, add salt and sugar at a ratio of 1:8. Mix the salt and sugar in with the flour. (You can add more sugar if you want your dumplings to be sweeter). Add water slowly and in small amounts, and begin to knead the flour.
Repeat the process until your dough is powder free. A ittle trick I've learned is to add some oil to your dough when kneading.
Once the dough is fully kneaded, you can begin to slice off pieces of the dough and even get creative with shaping your dumplings (circles, squares, spheres, maybe even a bunny rabit).
Have a pot of boiling water ready and simply drop the dumplings in. You must stir initially to prevent the dumplings from sticking to the bottom of your pot.
Once all of the dumplings are in the pot allow it to boil on medium for 45 min. That's it, the finished product is a pot full of dumplings in a thick sauce-lick broth that can be used for soups. Be creative!…
