Danielle's Tomato Dumplings
Mine didn't look nearly as good as the ones in Erin's picture... Sadly, mine look barely edible!
This recipe has great promise. The vegetable stew part tasted great. However, I royally screwed up the dumplings.
I thought about using buttermilk instead of milk because 1) I love it, and 2) I have some in the fridge I'm trying to use before it goes bad. I did a little internet research to see if the substitution would work, and I saw on at least a couple of websites that you can easily substitute buttermilk for milk in biscuit recipes. I figured the dumpling dough was probably pretty close to biscuit dough, so I gave it a shot.
Well, that fell flat. My dumplings were gummy. They weren't bready in the middle at all. The flavor was ok, but I had a really hard time getting past the texture.
If I get around to trying this again sometime (this time following the recipe like I'm supposed to!), I'll post an update about how it turns out.
