MOM'S HOMEMADE PEACH DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• 1. In a large pot or dutch oven, combine the peaches & syrup/juice, water, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt and butter. Over medium heat, cover and bring mixture to a boil; stirring occasionally to ensure butter and seasonings are well dispersed. Cook for approximately 15 minutes. **You can add more sugar to taste once the peaches have cooked for a little while.
• 2. While the peaches are cooking, prepare the dumpling dough. Sift the flour in a medium or large bowl. Cut the shortening into the flour until you get a mealy consistency. Gradually add the cold water, mixing just until the dough holds together. Do not add too much water. Knead lightly 4 to 5 times. ~ Mealy Consistency - you will finely cut the shortening into the flour.
• 3. On a floured surface, roll out the dough very thinly (no thicker than about 1/4" thick). Cut into 2 to 2 1/2 inch wide strips; then cut each strip diagonally into even pieces. ~~Picture is of my mom kneading and cutting the dough strips. I just had to add her in this!
• 4. Place enough strips of dough into the boiling peach mixture to cover and press them down into the juice. Cook those strips for approximately 7 minutes. Repeat the process (of adding dough strips & cooking) until all of the dough has been used up. Cook until the dumplings look translucent and start to settle into the juice and the juice thickens....then they are done. *Once you add & start cooking the dumplings, you may need to add a little more water.

FRESH PEACH DUMPLINGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.
• Combine the cinnamon, 1/3 cup of sugar, brown sugar and flour. With a pastry blender mix in the butter until it resembles coarse meal.
• Roll out the chilled puff pastry dough on a lightly floured surface to a 1/8 inch thickness. Cut the dough into six 7 inch squares. Place on a baking sheet and refrigerate.
• Blanch the peaches for 10 seconds in rapidly boiling water. Remove and drain. Peel the peaches, split in half, and remove the pits. Toss the halves in lemon juice and then in the cinnamon mixture. Reassemble the peach halves with the remaining cinnamon mixture in the cavity.
• Remove baking sheet from refrigerator. Place a peach in the center of each square of dough. Paint the edges of the dough with cold water. Bring the points of the square together at the top and pinch the seams together to seal.
• Paint the dumplings with the beaten egg. Sprinkle with the 2 teaspoons of sugar (use crystal sugar for these two tablespoons if you have it available). Prick a few holes around the top to allow steam to escape. Bake for about 40 minutes or until the peaches are tender and the pastry has browned. When dumplings are done, remove from the baking sheet and allow to cool for 20 minutes.
• To serve, spoon some of the sauce onto each serving plate, place dumpling in the center and drizzle some additional sauce over the top. You may serve with vanilla or peach ice cream or peach sorbet (recipe follows).
