Инструкции
- To make the dumplings, combine the cornmeal, flour, baking pwdr, salt, pepper, and sugar together in a bowl. Add in the butter and lowfat milk and mix well to make a batter which is moist but not sticky. If the dough is too moist, knead in a little more flour. Divide the dough into 1" balls, flatten, and shape into small triangles.
- Pour the chicken stock into a pot and bring to a boil over medium heat.
- Reduce the heat to a simmer and drop in the dumplings. Cook 3 to 4 min, till tender and cooked all the way through. Remove the dumplings from the stock and set aside.
- For the soup, heat 2 c. of the water and the azafran in a large saucepan over medium-high heat till the liquid has reduced by half, about 7 min. Pour through a fine sieve, throw away the azafran, and return the liquid to the saucepan. Add in salt, pepper, stock, and the remaining 4 c. of the water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add in squash, reduce the heat ans simmer 5 min. Add in cork kernels and simmer another 5 min. Add in dumplings and spinach, cook 2 min, and serve immediately.
- **Note** Azafran, also called Native American saffron my the American Indians, is an herb which is actually fine threads from the stigma of the safflower plant. Despite the name, azafran is not the same as saffron, that is an expensive spice derived from the crocus plant in the iris family. (Saffron can be substituted for azafran, though: use 1 healthy pinch of saffran for 2 Tbsp. of azafran).
- Azafran is commonly sold in Latin American markets and specialty herb stores. It can also be ordered by mail. It is best stored in a cold dark place and will last several months in a sealed plastic or possibly glass container.
