Thanks for all of your comments. I'm also not sure why these aren't good the next day, but most likely it depends on the consistency of the dumplings. I agree that "dumplings" are different depending on where you're from – these are what Southerners consider to be true chicken and dumplings. In this contest, we had so many entries, along with fantastic stories of recipe history, that we compiled them into a book of chicken and dumpling recipes.

They are not dumplings in the real sense of the word dumplings because they are usually round and thicker but i'm not persaonally struck on these?

@MikeM615 I was thinking the same thing. I've never heard of dumplings tasting worse as they get older. Well, maybe hers are so good she never has any left for the next day, huh? LOL

What she talking about? Chicken and Dumplings taste much better the next day!

Thanks so much....it has been over 30 years since my mama made them and when I moved to the West nobody knew how! I can't wait to try them!

Love these dumplings. My Grandmother did this recipe longer than fifty years ago that I know of and this is how I do them. Wish I had entered this contest!
