Turkey Vegetable Soup with Stuffing Dumplings image

There's probably no better way to empty that overstuffed post-Thanksgiving refrigerator than a hearty soup. Using the turkey bones to make a broth for the soup is the best way to get every penny's worth from your bird. If your leftover stuffing is chunky and rustic, finely chop it to make these delicate dumplings.

Time 1h45m

Yield 6 Servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Carcass from one 12 to 14 pound roasted turkey, picked clean
2 large onions, one quartered and one chopped
4 peeled carrots, 2 coarsely chopped and 2 sliced
4 stalks celery, 2 coarsely chopped and 2 sliced
6 garlic cloves, 4 smashed and 2 chopped
1 bay leaf
10 whole black peppercorns
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 large eggs
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour, plus more as needed
1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more as needed
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 cups leftover stuffing
2 sprigs fresh thyme
2 cups shredded leftover turkey meat
1 cup leftover corn kernels

Steps:

  • Put the turkey carcass, quartered onions, coarsely chopped carrots and celery, smashed garlic, bay leaf, and peppercorns in a large stockpot and add enough cold water to just cover, about 2 quarts. Bring the water to a boil, and then reduce the heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook for 1 hour. Remove from the heat and strain the solids from the broth. Pour the liquid through a fine mesh strainer and reserve; you should have about 10 to 12 cups broth.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the eggs, flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and some black pepper together until smooth. Add the stuffing and mix until well combined; cover and reserve.
  • Wipe the stockpot clean with a paper towel. Heat the oil in the pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic and cook until soft and translucent, about 6 minutes. Add the sliced carrots and celery, thyme sprigs, and reserved broth and bring to a simmer; cook vegetables are just soft, about 10 minutes.
  • Roll level tablespoons of the dumpling mixture into balls with wet hands (see note) and drop into the simmering soup; cook until dumplings float, 3-4 minutes. Gently stir in the turkey meat, corn, and season with salt and pepper, and simmer until heated through. Serve immediately.

VEGETABLE SOUP WITH DUMPLINGS



Vegetable Soup with Dumplings image

This nutritious soup never gets boring, because the vegetables can vary depending on what's in season or on hand. In Dad's case, he was too young to help his older brothers in the fields, so he'd dig the vegetables of his choice out of the garden and help his mom prepare the soup. The dumplings are optional.

VEGETABLE DUMPLINGS



Vegetable Dumplings image

The Polish have pierogi, the Japanese have gyoza: Many of the world's cultures have some version of dumplings, whether they're filled with meat, cheese or vegetables, and baked, steamed, fried or boiled. This recipe is adapted from the children's cookbook "Around the World: Delicious Dishes from Across the Globe," from the American Girl cookbook series, and was inspired by the dumplings you might get at your local Chinese takeout spot. They're not necessarily authentic, but they are delicious, and folding and frying them is a fun weekend project for kids of all ages. You can use round or square wonton wrappers for this project, but don't forget the sauce: It's what makes these dumplings great.

Time 1h

Yield About 24 dumplings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon packed light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon peeled and grated fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon toasted sesame oil (optional)
2 scallions, thinly sliced
2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons hoisin sauce
1 teaspoon peeled and grated fresh ginger
6 teaspoons canola oil, plus more as needed
1 cup finely shredded green cabbage
1/2 cup finely chopped cremini mushrooms
1/3 cup peeled and shredded carrot
Pinch of salt
Cornstarch, for dusting
24 wonton wrappers

Steps:

  • Make the dipping sauce: In a small bowl, whisk the soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, ginger and sesame oil (if using) until the sugar dissolves. Cover and set aside.
  • Make the filling for the dumplings: In another small bowl, stir together the scallions, soy sauce, hoisin sauce and ginger. Add 2 teaspoons canola oil to a large nonstick frying pan. Turn the heat to medium and warm up the oil for 2 minutes. Carefully add the cabbage, mushrooms and carrot and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Add the scallion mixture and stir to combine. Transfer the dumpling filling to a medium bowl and let cool to room temperature. Wipe out the pan or clean it if necessary.
  • Once the filling has cooled, assemble the dumplings: Put 1 cup water in a medium bowl. Sprinkle a large rimmed baking sheet with 2 to 3 tablespoons cornstarch, using your fingers to evenly distribute it.
  • Lay 1 wonton wrapper on a clean work surface. Spoon 1 teaspoon of the dumpling filling in the center of the wrapper. Dip your fingers in the water and lightly moisten the edges of the wrapper. Fold the wrapper in half (if using squares, fold the wrapper in half diagonally to form a triangle) and press the edges together to seal. Place the dumpling on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat with additional wrappers and the remaining filling until you've used up all the filling. (At this point, you can freeze some of the dumplings in a single layer on the baking sheet. Once they are frozen, transfer them to a resealable plastic bag and freeze for up to 3 months. Don't thaw them before cooking, but add a few minutes to the cooking time.)
  • Cook the dumplings: Brush the same frying pan with 2 teaspoons canola oil, set the pan over medium heat and warm up the oil for 2 minutes. Adding one dumpling at a time but working quickly, dust off excess cornstarch and add as many dumplings as will comfortably fit in a single layer in the pan (don't crowd them or they won't cook evenly). Let cook (no stirring!) until browned on the bottom, 2 to 3 minutes. Using tongs, gently flip the dumplings. Carefully pour about 1/2 cup water into the pan (it will bubble up and steam!). Cover and cook until the water is mostly absorbed, about 4 minutes.
  • Transfer the dumplings to a serving platter and cover lightly with aluminum foil to keep warm. Repeat to cook the remaining dumplings, brushing the pan with 2 teaspoons canola oil before each batch.
  • Serve dumplings warm, with the dipping sauce.

VEGETABLE STEW WITH DUMPLINGS (VEGETARIAN)



Vegetable Stew With Dumplings (Vegetarian) image

This is a very different vegetable stew just packed with flavor - and is one of my family's most requested and one of my very favorites. It is based on a recipe from one of my favorite cookbooks, "Tis the Season - A Very Vegetarian Christmas", by Nanette Blanchard. Although this comes from a Christmas cookbook, I like to serve this all year long, although it is especially comforting in the fall and winter months when it's cold. The original recipe calls for a puff pastry crust, which could make quite an elegant meal fit for company. However, I like to serve it with dumplings, so it's more everyday for my family. I'm sure it would be equally delicious without the dumplings - although my family would be upset if I didn't include them (the dumplings are usually fought over in my house). I've included just a basic dumpling recipe, but if you have one of your own, by all means please use it! You could also use some refrigerated biscuit dough if you have it on hand. This is something we might eat on a Sunday evening at our house, although the stew actually comes together quite quickly. I hope you enjoy it as much as my family does.

LENTIL AND VEGETABLE SOUP WITH DUMPLINGS



Lentil and Vegetable Soup With Dumplings image

Make and share this Lentil and Vegetable Soup With Dumplings recipe from Food.com.

Provided by Orions Wife

Categories     Lentil

Time 1h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 1/4 cups dry lentils
8 cups water
4 carrots, peeled and sliced
3 -4 celery ribs, peeled and sliced
1 large onion, peeled and sliced
4 bouillon cubes or 1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 eggs or 3 tablespoons milk
1/2 cup milk
1 1/2 cups flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon sugar

Steps:

  • Begin by making the soup. Rinse the lentils under running water. Then place them in a large pot and cover them with the 8 cups water. Bring to a boil and allow to simmer over medium heat for about 20 minutes. The lentils will be almost tender. Add the vegetables, bouillon or salt, garlic and black pepper Stir gently and allow the mixture to simmer for 20 minutes more. The vegetables and lentils wll both be tender. Taste and add salt if necessary.
  • Now look over the amount of liquid in the pot. Add enough extra water so that all of the solids are well covered with liquid. They don't need to be swimming over their heads, but they should be wading up to their waists. Bring the mixture to a slow lazy simmer, not a boil. If the soup boils, it will cause the dumplings to disintegrate instead of cooking up into fluffy, glimmering jewels.
  • While the soup is simmering, prepare your dumplings. Get out a big bowl. In it combine the oil, egg and milk until they are well blended. Add the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Mix it up to a stiff batter, like for drop biscuits. Set it aside until you need it.
  • When the soup is simmering slowly, it is time to drop in the dumplings. Take small rounded scoops of the dough with a teaspoon and drop them into the simmering broth, on top of the vegetables. Keep dropping the dough blobs until you have scraped the bowl clean. Now cover the pot and let it simmer for 20 minutes. Do not peek. Let the dumplings simmer covered for the full 20 minutes. The thing about dumplings is that they cook partly from the soup and partly from the steam. The steam is what makes them fluffy, and the broth is what cooks them through. If you peek while the dumplings are cooking, they will turn into lumpy, doughy rocks. When the time is up, serve the soup and dumplings as soon as possible. The soup will be thickened and the dumplings will be light and fluffy.

VEGETABLE SOUP WITH EGGPLANT (AUBERGINE) DUMPLINGS



Vegetable Soup With Eggplant (Aubergine) Dumplings image

I have a 10 year old grandson who would rather eat soup for dinner then anything else.. AND it doesn't matter what kind of soup. So I get to use him as a taster and he knows the star system. He said this was a keeper for sure. You are welcome to use more garlic or spice depending on your taste, but this way is good. One good size eggplant should cover both the soup and the dumplings. Time does not include draining time for eggplant.

SAUSAGE VEGETABLE SOUP WITH DUMPLINGS



Sausage Vegetable Soup With Dumplings image

This is a hearty soup with a little bit of heat. Not too much, just enough to give it a little bit of spicey heat. I was inspired by the flavor of a soup I tasted about 20 years ago in a restaurant when my father was in the hospital far from home. This restaurant had such good soup that my mother, sisters, and I went back 4 times in one week for dinner just so we could eat more of that wonderful soup! Serving suggestion: Since you are only using a portion of the pizza dough for the dumplings...you might make a foccacia bread with the remainder to serve with the soup.

TURKEY VEGETABLE SOUP WITH STUFFING DUMPLINGS RECIPE - (4.6/5)



Turkey Vegetable Soup with Stuffing Dumplings Recipe - (4.6/5) image

Provided by á-10360

Number Of Ingredients 20

Carcass of 1 (12- to 14-pound) roasted turkey, picked clean
1 large onion, quartered
1 large onion, chopped
2 carrots, peeled and coarsely chopped
2 carrots, peeled and sliced
2 stalks celery, coarsley chopped
2 stalks celery, sliced
4 cloves garlic, smashed
2 cloves garlic, sliced
1 bay leaf
10 whole black peppercorns
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
2 large eggs
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour, plus more as needed
1/2 teaspoon salt, plus more as needed
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
2 cups leftover stuffing
2 sprigs fresh thyme
2 cups shredded leftover turkey meat
1 cup leftover corn kernels

Steps:

  • Put the turkey carcass, quartered onions, coarsely chopped carrots and celery, smashed garlic, bay leaf, and peppercorns in a large stockpot and add enough cold water to just cover, about 2 quarts. Bring the water to a boil, and then reduce the heat to maintain a gentle simmer and cook for 1 hour. Remove from the heat and strain the solids from the broth. Pour the liquid through a fine mesh strainer and reserve; you should have about 10 to 12 cups broth. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whisk the eggs, flour, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and some black pepper together until smooth. Add the stuffing and mix until well combined; cover and reserve. Wipe the stockpot clean with a paper towel. Heat the oil in the pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic and cook until soft and translucent, about 6 minutes. Add the sliced carrots and celery, thyme sprigs, and reserved broth and bring to a simmer; cook vegetables are just soft, about 10 minutes. Roll level tablespoons of the dumpling mixture into balls with wet hands (see note) and drop into the simmering soup; cook until dumplings float, 3-4 minutes. Gently stir in the turkey meat, corn, and season with salt and pepper, and simmer until heated through. Serve immediately. NOTE: Moistness of stuffing can vary; if the dumpling dough is too soft to roll, add flour a teaspoon at a time until it is firm enough to hold its shape while rolling.

VEGETABLE STEAMED DUMPLINGS



VEGETABLE STEAMED DUMPLINGS image

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 pound firm tofu
1/2 cup coarsely grated carrots
1/2 cup shredded Napa cabbage
2 tablespoons finely chopped red pepper
2 tablespoons finely chopped scallions
2 teaspoons finely minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro leaves
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Bowl of water, plus additional water for steamer
35 to 40 small wonton wrappers
Non-stick vegetable spray, for the steamer

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Cut the tofu in half horizontally and lay between layers of paper towels. Place on a plate, top with another plate, and place a weight on top (a 14-ounce can of vegetables works well). Let stand 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, cut the tofu into 1/4-inch cubes and place in a large mixing bowl. Add the carrots, cabbage, red pepper, scallions, ginger, cilantro, soy sauce, hoisin, sesame oil, egg, salt, and pepper. Lightly stir to combine. To form the dumplings, remove 1 wonton wrapper from the package, covering the others with a damp cloth. Brush the edges of the wrapper lightly with water. Place 1/2 rounded teaspoon of the tofu mixture in the center of the wrapper. Shape as desired. Set on a sheet pan and cover with a damp cloth. Repeat procedure until all of the filling is gone. Using a steaming apparatus of your choice, bring 1/4 to 1/2-inch of water to a simmer over medium heat. Spray the steamer's surface lightly with the non-stick vegetable spray to prevent sticking. Place as many dumplings as will fit into a steamer, without touching each other. Cover and steam for 10 to 12 minutes over medium heat. Remove the dumplings from the steamer to a heatproof platter and place in oven to keep warm. Repeat until all dumplings are cooked.
