Tomato Soup Dumplings
A.K.A. Egg Drops
  This recipe has been handed down by two generations.  First, from my grandmother Regina, who was born in Russia. Then, to my mother who was born in Bayonne, New Jersey.  Now, my daughter is married and living in California--she has three children.  So, the recipe has been passed down to her--a total of three generations!  This soup recipe is in memory of my mother, Lillian.

 
 
  • 3/4 lb. of soup meat
  • 1 lb. of soup bones
  • Large can of tomato puree
  • 1 can of tomato soup
  • 2-3 lemons
  • 2-3 eggs
  • 1 cup of flour
  • Brown sugar (approx. 1/2 cup or to taste)
  • 1/4 teaspoon of salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon of pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon of celery salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon of onion salt
  •  
     
    Place soup meat and bones in a large pot--clear when this comes to a boil.  Add tomato puree and tomato soup.  Cook 1/2 hour (uncovered).  For the dumplings beat 2-3 eggs well and add the salt, pepper, celery salt, onion salt, and then flour (slowly add a little at a time).  Be sure to keep stirring until consistency is thick and drops from a teaspoon (not drippy, but thick and smooth).  Drop with teaspoon into boiling soup--let cook for about 20 more minutes.
