My maternal grandmother would make these and this recipe provides me with fond memories. Although of English decent, we grew up in Lancaster County, Pa, heart of the PA Dutch!!! Her recipe was long lost, so thank you for sharing this.
Hi I'm Pa. Dutch. I live near Lancaster, Pa. I get really upset when these so called "chefs" make Chicken meat pie... and call it Chicken Pot Pie. I also get very mad when I see what they call Chicken and Waffles? It's NOT a chunk of fried chicken laid on a waffle and drowned in Maple syrup and dusted with powdered sugar!!! That's Disgusting!! It's diced Chicken in Gravy and ladled over a good Pa. Dutch waffle. Thank you for getting it right. I don't care WHAT the rest of the country calls chicken pot pie, although I guess I do?, yours is the right one!! I just subscribed, thanks. Keep those REAL recipes coming. God bless: Dave, Berwick, Pa.
Pot Pie is our family's tradition. I am crying as I'm typing this because my grandmother, "Nana" made them EVERY Christmas and Thanksgiving, and we all asked for her Pot Pie!!! She showed me how to make them and she explained, "Drop the noodles in the boiling water-but don't stir them or they'll be tougher than a hog's snout." I'm not sure what that means, but now I'll make them for myself and see. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR TUTORIAL!!!...Pennsylvania girl here!
Katie Cooks and Crafts I'm thinking she never let them dry out like you, and that's why she told me not to stir them...they would stick together and be tough.
I live in Lancaster County PA and this is my favorite Pennsylvania Dutch dish to eat! I've been eating it since I was little. They have restaurants in my town with FANTASTIC authentic PA Dutch chicken pot pie, but tonight I'm going to try to make it myself!
My father-in-law, who's gone now, used to make these types of noodles. He also made "drop noodles" and chicken, it was the best thing I ever tasted!! Thanks so much for sharing.
Your recipe is very close to the way my family makes pot pie. I’m 75 years old and over the past few years my brothers and sister and I get together for an evening of pot pie and reminiscing. I don’t have a handed down recipe. When I first started making it, I looked up a recipe for egg noodles and started from there. When we were kids one of us, I don’t know who, started calling it popeye. I think it was just kidspeak for pot pie. We still use that word among ourselves. When you say pot pie, people usually think your talking about an actual two-crust pie with a rich filling of chicken and vegetables. I’ve been looking on You Tube and it is so interesting to see the different versions. Sometimes people call it chicken and dumplings. Many use cut up refrigerated biscuit dough! But yours is closer to what I remember from childhood. I’ve never been concerned with drying it. Also, we’ve been dropping the squares in the broth one at a time, chasing the boiling bubbles around, so they don’t clump up!
I am from central Pa and am of Pennsylvania Dutch descent and grew up eating this YUMMY!! - I have not made it is years but you have renewed my interest and I can taste it already - Thanks so much.
One of the truly great Depression Era foods. My Grandmother often made these in chicken broth with diced potatoes. It's still one of the most delicious and hearty meals I've ever eaten. Thanks for bringing it back.
cunard61 Thank you for sharing your story. It's amazing how such humble food can be so memorable. It is one of the reasons I wanted to share this recipe.
I remember stories from my grandmother during the depression era. They would every once in a while make "field pot pie". Same recipe but the meat would be whatever they could get out of the field that day. Pheasant, squirrel, ground hog, etc. etc. Up until about 10 years before my grandmother passed my father and I used to go and set traps every once in a while in the neighbors field and she would make it. Man I miss this food and another good Pa. Dutch dish hog maw.
I am from Winona, MN but my dads family was from Piqua, Ohio and chicken pot pie is something we always loved having growing up! I am so thankful I found your video because my dad passed away about 2.5 years ago and I never got the chance to learn how to make these noodles❤️
Nice video. My grandmother made these with either chicken soup or pot roast a couple of times each winter/fall depending on the weather and sometimes after Thanksgiving. Our Amish neighbors still make em, as they are common here near New Wilmington, PA..
I'm in Kansas and we call this chicken and noodles. I cut my dough into thin strips, though. We make it very thick like a stew and serve it over mashed potatoes. When I was a child my great grandmother would make this for Thanksgiving. It was very simple; broth, chicken and noodles with salt and pepper. When I make it now I add carrots, celery, onion, garlic and seasonings. It is a must-make at least once in the cooler months. Someone commented here that this was a depression era food. Looking back, I believe it but back then I just thought it was the best. It was so simple and cooked with love. Thankful I can carry on a tradition in my family but have the means to make it better.
Thanks for your comment! I love hearing from so many difference variations on this. Not every depression era recipe is so loved, so lots are. Just shows the love that went into cooking was shining through so much more than the actual ingredients.
Thank you for your tutorial. I am from PA and have been living in Calif for 38 years. My husband never heard of potpie, so I showed him the video. Now he wants me to make it for him.......
This is my first attempt at home made pot pie noodles and a wonderful video, thank you!!! I am in central PA, so Pennsylvania Dutch cooking was a way of life for us. I grew up on soups, stews, meat pies, and pot pies to name a few! As a married woman, my in-laws expanded the dishes to include hog maws which I have adjusted, due to new family preferences, to exclude the stomach and do a much loved roaster of pork sausage links, potatoes, and onions with salt and pepper and water to create a tasty broth! AND served with home baked bread and Apple Butter . This is is all due to just the area's location and influence of the past and present Pennsylvania Dutch population and heritage.
My mom made this pot pie just like that. Not sure that she put butter in it. She cut in larger squares and put in beef broth from a chuck or arm roast As kids we loved it was like square homemade noodles. Thank you for sharing
Thank you Very much!! I never made home noodles before. So thanks to your video tonight i am making ham pot pie for me and my lovely girl friend. Everything came out great but i think you forgot to mention one key ingredient.... and that would be lots of love ;) thanks again take care and god bless.
My grandmother/mother and I have made these noodles using ham broth. However, we use ham broth, flour and salt and pepper as our only ingredients. I'm going to try your recipe the next time. Thank you for the recipe and video.
i grew up out in the country near York, Pennsylvania. Everyone was Pa Dutch. I've eaten a ton of pot pie like this. 73 years old and still craving it !!
My family came from Pennsylvania. My mother often made what we called "pot pie," which was just like this (though she used store-bought noodles). It wasn't until I was a teenager that I realized that most people think "pot pie" has to have a pie crust.
Thanks for posting. Mom learned this recipe from grandma. And her family was Mennonite from Ohio area. Neither one of them measure so I wasn't sure how to make without measurements. Lol. Thanks!
Your pot pie dough recipe is so close to my Momma’s!! She always used Crisco as her fat. But everything else is what she used! We always had Ham Pot Pie. Thank you for sharing !!
My grandmother, who was born in Fryburg PA, or my father's cousin, who was born in nearby Marble, PA, taught essentially the same recipe to my mother, athough the resultant noodles were much thicker, almost dumplings. They called them 'flags', and were an essential part of a good pot roast or stewed chicken.
I come from Ohio and I learned how to make these noodles from my mom and grandpa (her dad). We make them with chicken in chicken broth, thicken it up if needed, and serve over mashed potatoes. Carb overload but oh SOOO good and THE BEST comfort food! I don't know why, but we call it Chicken Popeye. I had even asked popeye or pot pie and both my mom and grandpa alwasy said, "Popeye, like Popeye the sailor man!" I've made it with my kids to teach them, but we really only make it once a year. I'll have to make it more often when they come home so the recipe will not end in our family with me. ;)
My Dad was from Pittsburgh and my Mom’s mom from northern farm land in Illinois. We lived in Wyoming and always ate pot pie but with sour cream added just at the table. I’m not sure which side of the family the recipe came from. Dad often told mom about his childhood meals and she would figure out those recipes too
Awe I learned why my dumplings stick together when I make chicken & dumplings....I’m not letting them dry. In Oklahoma we call them dumplings, but my husband who’s from North Carolina calls them chicken & pastries. Hearing Pennsylvania now from you calls them chicken pot pie...interesting. Thanks for teaching this 56yr old how to make them not stick 😋
I'll probably make this tonight, and if it works out my dad will be happy. He grew up eating soup with these noodles at his grandmother's house, but she didn't teach him how to make them, and the few times he tried they cooked apart. I wonder if maybe he didn't dry them, or something. Thanks for the great idea!
My great grandmother would make it every other weekend, though she always made ham pot pie and added potatoes. My mom also for a few years made it every other Friday - no potatoes and mixed it up, sometimes beef, ham, chicken (my favorite), even deer meat.
My family makes this once or twice a year. It's been pAssed down from my great grandma on my moms side. Now I am making it for my kids. I let them make the noodles with me. We add a little bit of white vinegar to our noodles with the water. It adds something to them. It's hard to explain but it's delicious. I hope my kids pass it on to theirs ❤️❤️❤️ my grandma was from Pennsylvania and I feel like this fish is more known on the east coast. I am from California and Arizona and no one knows about this at all lol
From PA we love bot pie noodles. I can not find them in local grocery stores anymore, so we go to an Amish community store about an hour away Smicksburg PA. They have them and I buy several bags. Going to try and make them, thank you.
I too have always eaten pot pie like this! Pa Dutch lineage. Thanks for the recipe! I didn’t realize I could quicken drying time in the oven🤔. Definitely will try this!
I have a recipe from my Pennsylvania grandmother which was written on a small scrap of paper and had the basics for making the chicken pot pie but neglected information on how to actually make the noodles, so finding your recipe was wonderful. The only real difference was that she added sliced potatoes, not cubed. Also she stated to top with “parsley butter”, which I’m guessing is just softened butter mixed with fresh parsley. I have kept and cherished that scrap of paper for more than 50 years and will pass it on to my son’s family.
Katie, I loved your recipe. My parents used to eat pot pie noodles but never made homemade except my girlfriend who made for me once. Delicious with chicken too.
I make this for the local fire department. the exception is I make it on a large scale. During the carnival I make 300 to 400 quarts a day. I live in Woodsboro, Md these people here go insane for this stuff. But they like the dough with flour water and salt, (YUK), I want to do it like you but I'm afraid of the pitch forks and torches if I change it. They also have me do it for all of the events during the year. You do it the right way !!!!!!!!!!
Yes! I'm from Norristown.I live in Delawsre now but I remember my mom making them when I was a girl. She used a pastry cutter to cut in lard. They were big and fat and doughy and I loved them? After I got married, she came to my house and asked me where my pastry cutter was. I told her I didn't have one and she said "well how in the *%#! are you going to make pot pie noodles?"😃😃
I live in (was born in) Canada, but my parents are from Ohio, pretty close to Amish country. My grandma used to make me Pot Pie when I was a kid. Hers had ham chunks and green beans in it. it was the best salty soup ever! And these types of noodles are still my favorite.I wish I had the recipe for the broth like how she made it. I miss it so much. ps. this is my husbands computer, so the pic isn't me,lol!
I live in south central PA the first time I was given pot pie that wasn’t not like this I was so confused! It’s actually an instance of mishearing- the Amish actually call a recipe like this “bot boi” (Not sure the spelling but this is how you say it”) and it’s basically whatever leftover meat thrown in to make a stew with whatever other stuff is there. Literally this is my favorite food ever! I’m 36 and decided I needed to try my own noodles, so here goes nothing!
How can you keep them for use another day? Yes, we are planning a Pot Pie for the National East Coast Dog( Dutch oven gathering so I need to pre make these...
Hey! Thankyou so much for this recipe! I’m one of the people that has never heard of this recipe for homemade noodles! I would like to make them for a bulk freezer meal of pot pie about a week before I need them. How would you recommend I store them for a week?
Since you can make a type of soup from ham and turkey as you mentioned but also beef and chicken. With such soups you need to make such dishes you need to concoct your favorite broth to match. To increase the depth of flavor profile instead of water use broth instead. Also in these dishes sliced or diced potatoes were added. This stretches' the portions. Additionally the starch from the potatoes thicken the broth. You can use a corn starch and water or again broth to thicken for a more stew like consistency. Make as thick or thin as you desire.
Mom makes it, but doesnt dry them out. I just remember her recipie being 2+2+2. 2 eggs, 2 cups flour, 2 something of shortening. Pinch of salt, or maybe baking powder, and that's it. I'm trying to find a recipie like hers, but everyone makes theirs different.
Indiana Mennonite community... fry chicken skin to get the shorting. Use chicken stock in place of water. Add some baking powder for a plumped potpie. Special occasion.
I was raised on Pot pie!!! It was our family favorite when we'd go to my grandmother's house in Pennsylvania.
you reminded of my mother when i was young helping her in the kitchen thank you

my grandmother was Pennsylvania Dutch-- she made this all the time- it is very common in PA.Delicious - especially with ham
+r harris I agree, very delicious :)

yeah4me1 That's so sweet. I don't know about hog snouts either! I always stir to prevent them from sticking. I hope your pot pie turns out, good luck!

Kristen Wraback Good luck. I hope it turns out for you. Its easy to make once you understand the consistency the dough needs to be.
We have had potpie! We are from Central PA! Thank you for sharing!

I lived in Pa. for about 10years, pot pie is a comfort food for me & my husband

I've eaten these noodles all my life. I grew up and still live in south central PA. Little difference in recipes, but basically the same noodle!!
My grandmother, who was born in Fryburg PA, or my father's cousin, who was born in nearby Marble, PA, taught essentially the same recipe to my mother, athough the resultant noodles were much thicker, almost dumplings. They called them 'flags', and were an essential part of a good pot roast or stewed chicken.
I am Pennsylvania Dutch and make ham potpie after every christmas and easter. My friends never heard of it but ask when am I making it next.
Born and raised in PA. Love it! Just like my mother's recipe except she always added a little baking powder to raise the dough a touch.
Grew up in Strasburg pa around pa Dutch, best cooking in the world.
I come from Ohio and I learned how to make these noodles from my mom and grandpa (her dad). We make them with chicken in chicken broth, thicken it up if needed, and serve over mashed potatoes.

And we do not add salt or fat to the noodles.
Simple, and to the point...great presentation!
yeah4me1 Thanks!
Until I moved to PA, I had never heard of these noodles, or ham potpie. Potpie was a small pie in a tin pan. I love PA Dutch potpie now!

A family favorite made by my German grandmother. I'm planning to duplicate this soon with leftover ham and broth from Christmas.

This seems more like the chicken/turkey and dumplings I make. Either way it looks scrumptious.

I've never heard of these, thank you (Phila suburbs)
THank you for sharing. Can you dry and store these for later?
I live in south central PA the first time I was given pot pie that wasn’t not like this I was so confused! It’s actually an instance of mishearing- the Amish actually call a recipe like this “bot boi” (Not sure the spelling but this is how you say it”) and it’s basically whatever leftover meat thrown in to make a stew with whatever other stuff is there. Literally this is my favorite food ever! I’m 36 and decided I needed to try my own noodles, so here goes nothing!
My German grandma made this and how I loved it. I use a pizza cutter when cutting out noodles. I still make just like you do.
How can you keep them for use another day? Yes, we are planning a Pot Pie for the National East Coast Dog( Dutch oven gathering so I need to pre make these...
Hey! Thankyou so much for this recipe! I’m one of the people that has never heard of this recipe for homemade noodles! I would like to make them for a bulk freezer meal of pot pie about a week before I need them. How would you recommend I store them for a week?
My father's family was Pennsylvania Dutch and we grew up in Berks Co.--until I was an adult this was the only "pot pie" I knew!
Since you can make a type of soup from ham and turkey as you mentioned but also beef and chicken. With such soups you need to make such dishes you need to concoct your favorite broth to match.

Thanks for sharing Want to surprise my wife by making it by hand
That looks good but im from Lancaster and we also add potatoes
My grandmother made this ♡
Yum!
Cookfor mykids :)
Pa the only respectable pot pie😊
Looks good
🙃😐
Mom makes it, but doesnt dry them out. I just remember her recipie being 2+2+2. 2 eggs, 2 cups flour, 2 something of shortening. Pinch of salt, or maybe baking powder, and that's it. I'm trying to find a recipie like hers, but everyone makes theirs different.
Can we add Canola or Vegetable oil for the fat?
Yes.
Sometimes I add cold chicken broth instead of cold water adds flavor to the dough
Hershey PA knows this well
However, i dont remember drying out noodles
This is the ONLY kind of pot pie! PA Dutch!
BTW they are referred to as "bot pie" by the Amish.
Making it tomorrow for dinner -- I use my pasta maker to roll it out -- faster and easier on my back.
PA Dutch Bott Bie noodles
