PECAN DUMPLINGS WITH CARAMEL RAISIN SAUCE 1968 (ONTARIO CDA)

Steps:

• Place all sauce ingredients into a pot and bring to a boil. Reduce to a nice even simmer.
• I get the sauce going so it can start to thicken while you are preparing the dumplings.
• In a bowl add dry ingredients and combine well.
• In a cup measure the milk and butter and simmer in microwave until the butter has melted.
• Pour warm milk onto the dry ingredients and combine with the nuts, mix well, and knead three times.
• Roll into balls, if too sticky just drop 8 portions onto the simmering sauce.
• Cover with lid and cook at an even simmer 10 to 12 minutes until done.
• Uncover slightly and let sit four minutes on low, just to continue thickening the sauce underneath.
• Remove to bowls and serve with some sauce and raisins and a small portion of pouring cream on top.

GRANDMA'S DUMPLINGS FROM SCRATCH: 100+ YEAR OLD RECIPE

Steps:

• Mix the first 6 ingredients together until combined. Slowly add the water until you form a dough. You may have to add more or less water to form the ball.
• Roll out the dumpling dough on a floured surface thin and cut into bite size pieces.
• Drop them one at a time into simmering chicken/broth. She would always drop a few then wait a bit, then drop a few more. She said this kept them from sticking together in the end. After they are all added, give a gentle stir (once or twice around the pot, then leave it alone).
• Let the dumplings simmer in the chicken/broth mixture until they float to the top (about 15 minutes or so). I have let them simmer a longer, and that's fine. She would taste the broth one last time after the dumplings were done for seasoning before we got to eat them!
