MY FAVORITE EASTER MEAL/MY MOMS FAVORITE MEAL/OLD SCHOOL CHICKEN AND DUMPLINGS/COMPLETELY HOMEMADE

[@jewelofaries]

Man, I haven't seen Borden brand milk in years. They make the best dairy products in the south. I see they still have Elsie the cow on the cartoon. Fond memories☺

[@taffystexaskitchen70]

Have a blessed Easter. I agree just chicken and dumplings.

[@carrieannlake8907]

You right! Never understand why some people want to try and change old recipes. The old school way is the best way. Now I want to make a pot of chicken and dumplings.

[@OLDSCHOOLSOULFOOD]

I agree

[@sheilahtaylor3005]

I'm 72 years old and I grew up on chix & dumplings. Mom always put potatoes in hers. Her dumplings were just flour,broth & seasonings. Yep, all meat had the bones in. Celery was the other veggie, Chef. She also added "petmilk" Mom was from Alabama. She passed away at 97yrs old. Like you, I miss her very much

[@mflournoy2971]

I, too, love the stories of how our momz made things 'theirnz'. Precious memories.

[@sheilahtaylor3005]

Very precious memories ❤️ 💖

[@mflournoy2971]

Chef Jeff, I'm gonna try to make this today for my Mommy as a tribute to her. She suffers from dementia and I'm hoping I can trigger something. Thanks for showing us the old-school way. 💘

[@OLDSCHOOLSOULFOOD]

Awesome 👏🏾

[@DonnaRhodesletstakeupmakeup]

That is just wonderful!! xo

Yes…love on our parents, if they are still here!❤❤❤

Give her B12 500mg 2in the morning by 8 and 2 in the afternoon by 1pm do this everyday you will see a difference in about 2 weeks. it will slow it down but it won't stop it.....

Blessings to you and your Mom

[@juliepeck3523]

I love how you talk so sweetly about your Momma. A good Mom is absolutely priceless!

[@leeslove1999]

This is the way it's supposed to be made , and this is the way my Mother used to make it right down to the buttermilk, GOD BLESS HER SOUL!!!

[@aubreystalcup5452]

I freeze all my carcasses when I make roast chicken just so I can make chicken and dumplings. Soooo good and it's something that I always have the stuff to make. Once I even made it the rest of a store-bought rotisserie chicken I had... that carcass made a RICH broth it was amazing. And I'm with your mom, the dumplings are the best part! My teen boys fight over them lol

[@derekcopeland4967]

I thought about using a store rotisserie chicken but I didn’t think it would be good now I’m considering it 👍🏾

[@aubreystalcup5452]

This is the way I make dumplings

[@ginafriend1690]

Nice tribute to your Mom. She's smiling! 🙌 I love dumplings myself! Excellent comfort food, Chef! Thank you. "Christ the lord is risen today, sons of men and angels say. Raise your joys and triumphs high; sing, ye heavens and Earth reply." Happy Blessed Easter to you and to all! 🙏🥰💐

[@OLDSCHOOLSOULFOOD]

Thank you 🙏

[@YT4Me57]

Here in New York City we called an old soup hen, a fricassee chicken. Made for a great pot of soup or stew! Now they don't differentiate between the types of chicken since butchers became a thing of the past. I miss those days.

[@maryannsegal2807]

What a fine tribute to your mother! On my late mom's, dad's, aunts' and grandmother's birthdays, I always make whatever food I remember them liking. Also, cooking older people's favorites for them while they're still with us is such a blessing, for them and for us. There was an older man, from who I got to know at church, when he was in his 80s. He mentioned how much he liked fried green tomatoes, so I called my friend who grew up in the South and found out how to make them. When I could get some green tomatoes, I made some for him. He really enjoyed them - hadn't had them in decades, because you really don't see them in Wisconsin. So, I made some for him every summer. He died in Dec, 102 years old. I'll make some this year, too, and think of him. Your video is a great reminder of how food is part of every person's story.

[@vikithomasson7772]

Oh Chef! U have made my heart sing just watching cook this and enjoy eating it! My Grandmother died when I was only 3. So my Great Aunt was filled n as my Grandmother. Even at 98 and totally BLIND, she could cook better ckn & dumplings than I can make at my age - well over 60!! I am blessed! Ty for showing me an even better way to make mine! BTW my husband and I still argue over adding the ckn skin or leaving it out after 48 years! Since I cook, I get to leave n some! LOL!

[@marthaanthis3980]

Good morning, Chef Jeffery! He is risen!

[@JChamberlin]

I'm okay with adding carrots and a few additional veggies in just to extend the meal a little. If you can get a couple extra servings out of one meal, I'm fine with it.

[@sistermarieskitchen]

Finally! Someone that makes it like we did. We had this every week as a kid. Feeding 12 was real easy with this dish. Thank you for the trip down memory lane.

[@karendannals6907]

Me and my youngest son and my youngest daughter are the only ones who loves chicken and dumplings

[@pralinechocolates1]

I have not had this in about 25yrs. I am headed to the store right now to get my buttermilk and celery. This is exactly how my mother made it. Great job Chef Jeffrey and thanks for sharing! Now i can call her this evening and make her proud lmao!!

Awesome thanks

[@bsweat9230]

It's funny, I had a craving for chicken and dumplings for this weekend! I have a small ham for my granddaughter to go with some fried cabbage (another craving was for cabbage). The house smelled so wonderful! Thank you for sharing. I felt it was weird to want these 2 dishes at Easter time. Happy Resurrection Day!!! ♥️

[@lilliangaynor9116]

The "bestest" chicken and dumplings ever. Done the original way. 🎉😊 😃

Chef Jeffrey, this one of my Mama and Aunts favorite meal, Chicken and Dumpling. Its a blessing to honor your Mother on today, and it brought back memories of my Mama. God bless you and stay safe.

[@latikaosby8165]

My granny made it for me all time my child hood favorite

[@mswondr]

Chef Jeffrey, Where have you been all of my life. I just completed this recipe and I can’t believe how delicious this is. Oh my God. I’m not using the Lords name in vain because it has to be a gift from God to cook this good. It’s like l just learned how to cook. ❤❤❤. Thank you.

[@g-the-becoming3443]

Looking Good !!!!!

Morning y’all! Have a blessed Easter

[@lynnestamey7272]

Oh my, I remember my Mom's chicken and dumplings. She made it like you do, simple good food for the soul. She didn't put celery in it. I make it the same way. It's so good! I pick out the bones and then add the meat after I cook the dumplings. Salt, pepper a little garlic and it is heaven on a bun!

[@christineh7997]

OMG! I miss my Mom’s Chicken n’ Dumplins’. When I was a little girl, folks used the entire chicken leg (thigh, drumstick and feet were one unit) and chicken backs to make chicken n’ dumplins’. Chef Jeffery you got mouth watering 🤤🤤🤤for some chicken and dumplings. Yum-Yum-yummy!!!🤤🤤🤤

[@JG_SmileSOBright]

Chef Jeff, you are AMAZING! This was my daddy's favorite meal, but my grandma was the only one who could make it. I wish they were both alive so I could make it for them w your recipe! They were born in '21 & '41, and I came in '81...they would have been so impressed that "the baby" made something so good ❤

[@plantsandcarrots5233]

This is authentic. My momma taught me and I am in Mississippi.

[@roannathephoenix8561]

Pure comfort food. Looks amazing. You made me laugh out loud when you talked about being gentle with them like you do with babies and can slap em upside the head when they get older. Still giggling to myself.

[@sharongrashen1196]

That’s for you Momma! Looks so yummy! Old School Soul Food for real! #justshowsomekindness Keep being you!💜🙏🏼✝️

[@viviancwilson]

I discovered you by looking on Google for chicken gizzard gravy and I cant wait to make it, and your chicken n dumplings and ox tail soup. I have the same red lodge cast iron pot as you too. I love it. Thank you for the wonderful recipes. My mother passed in 1994 at a very young age of 47, she was Cuban and I learned a lot of her recipes and traditions that I carry on today. I grew up on beans and rice and I make a delicious pot of red beans with gizzards, hocks, and smoked sausage. God Bless you and thank you again for sharing your family tradition meals. ❤✌

[@tracestevens1773]

I make the harder dumplings with 3 whole eggs, because my grandmother made them that way. Also added 1/4 rap of baking powder to make them float to the top of the broth when fully cooked. They were not mushy because the egg firmed them up. tms poet Ohio. ( These I made professionally at a restaurant.

[@tracestevens1773]

1/4 tsp baking powder above: error typo above.

[@lillajones4792]

Good morning Chef. I love your recipe. I have not made dumplings in a while.Your recipe reminds me of how I made them and my mom made them.That chicken and dumplings look delicious.That’s some good eating .Have a blessed Easter Sunday Chef.❤

[@curlyqstooge]

Happy Easter Chef Jeffrey! I hope you're enjoying the morning services today. Chicken & dumplings are WAY up on my favorite foods list, I could eat them ANY time of the day. I agree, I don't want an entire vegetable garden in them, If I wanted all that, I'd have a chicken pot pie instead. Thanks for the video! #justshowsomekindness

[@OLDSCHOOLSOULFOOD]

Exactly

[@tracestevens1773]

I also make 12 dumplings, and then remove after 3 minutes. I place them in a bowl, and then cook another 12, etc. I never leave the dumplings soaking together in broth. I add them separately to each persons dish, and sprinkle chicken& dumplings with parsley and paprika. tms poet Ohio

[@cathywallace6990]

In NC it's called chicken and pastry

[@karenruble9518]

Good Morning Chef how nice to Honor your Mother on Resurrection Day!! Have a Blessed Day 🙏💕

[@hojojjmj]

Thank you so much, Chef Jeffery! I made your base recipe, but adjusted a few things to fit my family. I was only cooking for the hubby and I. I used 1 chicken breast and 1 thigh. He's a white meat only fan, I'm a dark meat fan. Plus, dark meat adds so much more flavor! I cut your dumpling recipe in half. Ok, are you sitting down? I added fresh parsley to the dumpling mix. I know, I know...not traditional, but I had parsley that needed to be used and I love the fresh flavor it adds. Other than cutting the recipe in half and adding the parsley, I followed as viewed. Total delish! Thank you so much! Keep those recipes coming. You are so appreciated. ❤

I don't ever remember Mama putting milk in hers and never celery & onions. She did leave it on the bone sometimes. When she just used legs. My MIL didn't either. I make them like she taught us. But I love the idea of adding the celery and onions. May try it with just the hubby and I. My kids (adults now) would "slap me upside my head" if I made it any other way for them. 😂 Loved seeing ur Mama. Such a sweet sweet lady. #JustShowSomeKindness

Thanks to Chef Jeff, it is not as intimidating as it looks. I didn't feel 'qualified' to feed dumplings to my children cuz it just seempt' like it was one of those dishes for the masters. This is a testament that we're never too old to learn.

[@imari2305]

I pray you had a blessed Easter Chef Jeffrey. I like making my dumplings by the spoon drop method similar to my spoon drop biscuits. I usually add whatever I have on hand; onion, celery or bell pepper and the seasonings. Your chicken and dumplings looks so delicious and rich. A great meal to have on a cold day or whenever. My mom (RIP) never made this dish but she did make her version of fricasse chicken using a fowl chicken and stewing it down with just chopped onions, water, salt and black pepper until the chicken was extra tender. She never thickened the juice and would serve it over plain rice and it would be the best meal ever.

[@JDDOWDY]
