Instructions: The legend of this recipe:
This recipe was found in an old trunk that came across the Oregon Trail in the 1800s. The pioneers used any kind of wild berry, including wild strawberries.

This recipe has been cut down to this
small amount from feeding about 120.

Combine to make stiff batter to hold shape.

Mash berries with sugar. Bring to boil in a large pot with a tight lid.

Drop dumplings into hot liquid, reduce heat and simmer, with lid on, for 15 minutes. Dont lift lid - dont peek!

Remove dumplings carefully to dessert dishes and spoon berries over. Serve with vanilla ice cream or whipped cream.
