Critical Success Points

  • Discarding the greasy turkey broth to keep the soup light
  • Mashing part of the pumpkin to create a thick, flavorful base
  • Preparing and resting the dumpling dough to ensure tender dumplings
  • Adding dumplings at the correct stage so they cook through without disintegrating

Safety Warnings

  • Handle hot oil and boiling water with care to avoid burns.
  • Ensure the conch is fully cooked before eating; it should be opaque and firm.
  • Use oven mitts when handling the hot stockpot.
