after the chicken has been cooked, 3 tablespoons of the fat from the top of
the consomme and 4 tablespoons of flour. Salt and pepper to taste and pour

Then top the chicken, potatoes and gravy with a parsley pinwheel, which is

Stir together the flour, salt and baking powder. Cut in the shortening with
2 knives, until the particles are the size of peas. Add the milk gradually.
Toss lightly with a fork until all the flour has been dampened, then knead
quickly into a round ball. Roll on floured board into an oblong shape 1/8
inch thick.
Butter top of dough and sprinkle with the minced parsley. Roll the same way
