Tips:
- Use fresh cornmeal: Fresh cornmeal will give your dumplings a better flavor and texture. If you don't have fresh cornmeal, you can use regular cornmeal, but be sure to sift it before using.
- Use buttermilk: Buttermilk will help make your dumplings light and fluffy. If you don't have buttermilk, you can use regular milk, but add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to it before using.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your dumplings tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Let the batter rest for 10 minutes before cooking: This will allow the cornmeal to absorb the liquid and make the dumplings more tender.
- Drop the dumplings into boiling water: This will help prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Cook the dumplings for 10-12 minutes, or until they float to the top: Don't overcook the dumplings, or they will become tough.
- Serve the dumplings immediately: Cornbread dumplings are best served hot. You can serve them with gravy, butter, or syrup.
