Texas Strip Dumplings

1 1/2 cups flour

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon baking soda

3/4 cup buttermilk

1/4 cup oil

boiling chicken broth

Mix flour, salt, and soda. Stir in buttermilk and oil. Roll dough out on floured board, cut into strips and drop into boiling chicken broth that has had about a drop of yellow food coloring added to it, along with a tablespoon of buttermilk. Cover and boil 12-14 minutes. (The food coloring makes the broth look rich.)
