Step 1

Sour Beef:

3) Strain pot liquid. Dissolve gingersnaps in some of the hot liquid from pot. Stir to make a loose paste. Slowly add the gingersnap slurry back to pot. Stir, cover and simmer for about 15 mins. Gravy may need to be strained again before serving.

Dumplings:

2) Drop by spoonfuls into boiling gravy (or boiling water or broth); reduce heat.

3) Cook uncovered 10 mins. Cover and cook an additional 10 mins.
