Note: if your stew won't thicken
Don't try to make dumplings with boxed corn muffin mix and no egg (I was out of flour and eggs).

On the bright side...

The dumplings failed, but man did it thicken up the stew! :P

:blush:

3. I could have told you that one
because the hot chile stews they make on the Pueblos are thickened with cornmeal.

Yum!

4. Yup indeed
Yet another accidental yum I caused in the Inchworm laboratory. :rofl:

It added a sweet tang to the stew as well... day two.. twice as good.

5. Try thickening with blue cornmeal sometime
It gives a real punch of corny goodness.
