I use George Washington's brown broth packets and add a few extra packets instead of canned broth called for in this recipe. It turns out AMAZING!

I followed the recipe exactly, but while the dumplings were cooking the liquid reduced considerably and the stew was starting to stick. Since it said not to peek while they were cooking, I didn't check on it. I found it to be too salty as well, and I probably didn't add as much salt as the recipe said to. I was skeptical of using the two cans of beef broth, as it does have a high sodium content. I found the taste of thyme to be overwhelming as well.....I'm not terribly fond of that spice, so I guess that's my fault..... I should have just used a pinch, or left it out. My dumplings were also quite heavy...again, that's probably something I did, but they were like sinkers!
