As far back as I can remember growing up in Centerville Utah winter time was when mom would make Grandma Jones danish dumplings with chicken soup. Mom passed away in 2009 and I just found her recipe box, I know she tried to show me how to make these when I was a young bride back in the late sixties but at that time I really wasn't into cooking, the times have changed for me and I am now a cook and I would like to say almost as good as mom and my two grandmothers,I will forever try and make them proud even though they aren't here to see I too can cook.

How To Make grandma jones danish dumplings

    Mom always used a cast iron fry pan on medium heat to melt the butter, then add flour (sift it in) then stir in the water to make a thick paste, remove from heat and cool then add two eggs well beaten, nutmeg and salt (mom used more nutmeg) so will add about 1/2 teaspoon in total.
