Dumplings: combine flour, pepper, baking powder. Cut the butter in until resembles coarse meal.
Make well in center and slowly pour 1/3 c water. Mix until dough forms. If too dry, add remaining water 1 T at a time. Turn out on counter and knead until smooth dough forms. Wrap in plastic and rest in freezer 10 min or fridge up to 24 hours.
When dough rested, very lightly dust surface with flour and roll out to 1/4 in thick. Cut 1 inch strips X 1 1/2 inch. Store in fridge until ready to drop in soup.

My daughter, Chef Coby Lee Ming, of Louisville KY makes this. She is channeling my maternal GM Eunice Ellison who made the best dumplings.
