This is about the way I make mine, but I've never tried dumplings. Sounds good though. I always add about 1/4 tsp of jar style garlic. Ham hocks are best, but you can also add diced ham pieces from left over ham. I cook most of the day and make sure that all peas are disolved so that the soup is creamy.
