TV_Tech Posted January 29, 2012 Report Share Posted January 29, 2012 this recipe is a Nova Scotia favorite. the name comes from the sound of the blueberry "stew" cooking Ingredients Sauce: 4 cups wild fresh or frozen blueberries 1L 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg 2 mL 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon 2 mL 3/4 cup granulated sugar 175 mL 1 Tbsp lemon juice 15 mL 1/2 cup water 125 mL Dumplings: 2 cups all purpose flour 500 mL 4 tsp baking powder 20 mL 1/2 tsp salt 2 mL 1 Tbsp granulated sugar 15 mL 2 Tbsp butter or shortening 25 mL Milk Method In a large saucepan with cover, heat berries, nutmeg, cinnamon, sugar, lemon juice and water; boil gently until well blended and slightly cooked down. In a mixing bowl sift flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Cut in butter and add enough milk to make a soft biscuit dough. Drop by spoonfuls into hot berry sauce. Cover tightly with a lid and simmer for 15 minutes (no peeking!). The dumplings should be puffed and well cooked through. Transfer cooked dumplings to serving dish. Ladle sauce over top; serve with whipped cream. Scrumptious! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
