How to make it:
In a Dutch oven, combine the blackberries, 1 cup sugar, 1/4 teaspoon salt and lemon
extract. Bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, in a
mixing bowl, combine flour, baking powder, nutmeg and remaining sugar and salt.
Add milk; stir just until mixed. (Dough will be very thick.) Drop by tablespoonfuls
into six mounds onto hot blackberry mixture cover tightly and simmer for 15
minutes or until a toothpick inserted in a dumpling comes out clean. Spoon in-to
serving dishes. Serve with cream or whipped cream if desired.
