- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 0.75 cup milk
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 2 tablespoons fresh chives, finely chopped
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and kosher salt.
Step 2
Cut the unsalted butter into small cubes and add them to the dry ingredients.
Step 3
Using your fingertips, rub the butter into the flour mixture until it resembles coarse crumbs.

Gradually add the milk while stirring with a spoon or spatula until a wet, sticky dough forms.

Bring a pot of soup or broth to a gentle simmer.
Step 7
Using a spoon, drop heaping tablespoons of the dough into the simmering liquid, ensuring there is enough space between the dumplings to allow them to puff up.

Step 9
Serve the herb dumplings immediately with your favorite stew or soup.
