Mix well. Return to heat. Dough: Cut shortening into flour and salt. Beat egg. Add cooled broth and add to flour to make a firm dough. Add more flour, if necessary. Roll dough as thin as possible. Return chicken to broth. Add pepper. Cut dough into desired square or oblong pieces. Add one at a time to broth and chicken (which has been brought to boiling point). Add more water and broth if necessary, so they will be a bit soupy. If too soupy, add a Tbsp. of flour, mixed with a little water. After adding dumplings, simmer for 20 minutes.
