Recipe View Carefully stir the soup to ensure the dumplings are mostly covered by the broth. Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the saucepan, and simmer gently. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking, until the dumplings are cooked through and tender, about 10 minutes. (Cook time: 10 minutes)

For extra flavor, consider adding a pinch of dried thyme or rosemary to the broth.
To make the dumplings even more tender, avoid over-stirring while they are cooking.
If you prefer a thicker broth, you can mix a tablespoon of cornstarch with a tablespoon of cold water and stir it into the soup during the last few minutes of cooking.
