Dry Ingredients:
1-1/2 lbs. or 5 cups of Pastry Flour
3/4 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. Baking Powder

Liquid Ingredients:
4 Large Eggs
3/4 cup warm water

Boil 1 stewing chicken until tender. Should have at least 3 quarts of broth when finished. Remove chicken from bone and cut into small pieces. Get broth boiling, add 1 tbsp. onion, salt and pepper to taste, and 1 tbsp. parsley flakes. Drop dough pieces one at a time, constantly stirring so they do not stick. Add chicken, stirring occasionally after starting to boil, simmer until dough is cooked.
