Reader delights in instant dumplings

Dear Heloise: My neighbor told me about an easy way to make dumplings, which she said came from your column. Take canned homestyle or buttermilk biscuits and cut them into quarters. Then just drop them in hot broth. It was delicious. — Dawn C., Hattiesburg, Miss.

You also can cut the raw dough in half and drop the pieces in hot oil to make sopaipillas. A dusting of sugar and cinnamon and you have a nice change for a coffee break. — Heloise
