Instructions: Sift together the flour, salt and baking powder into a large bowl. Gently stir in the parsley and pepper. Beat the eggs in a measuring cup and add enough milk to make 1/2-cup liquid. Add the egg mixture and bacon grease to the dry ingredients, stirring with a fork just until blended. (If the dough seems too dry, add a little more milk.) Add the crumbled bacon and stir until combined. To cook, drop by spoonfuls onto simmering broth, soup or stew. Cover and cook until done, about 12 minutes. |
