Directions:

Wash chicken and dry on paper towels. Roll in seasoned flour. Render some chicken fat (or light cooking oil) in heavy kettle and brown chicken on all sides.

Add 1 quart boiling water; cover and cook very slowly for 3 1/2 to 4 hours, or until chicken is tender. (Seasonings such as onion, parsley, celery and celery tops may be added if desired). Add enough boiling water to barely cover chicken; add salt.

Drop Cornmeal Dumplings Batter by teaspoonfuls onto gently cooking stew. Cover and cook for 20 minutes, do not remove cover for first 10 minutes. Serve at once.

For Dumplings: Sift dry ingredients together in a bowl; work in shortening with fork. Combine beaten egg, buttermilk, and parsley; add to dry ingredients, mixing only enough to moisten flour.
