Your impulse to dash over to the neighboring diner's table for a chat about their meal brought a smile.

I too am used to fluffy dumplings, but I hail from the Finger Lakes region of New York state, where the dish turned up from time to time. <br /><br />Here in Kentucky, dumplings are flat and noodly, and the dish is served as a side dish, not a main course.<br /><br />So for example, one might serve country ham as a main course, with corn pudding, green beans with new ZipZiphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02086335016901683883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7131812739348646014.post-36726698475940887802011-01-21T09:12:24.760-08:002011-01-21T09:12:24.760-08:00Thanks, Jenn!
