Millen Farms OnFacebook
You can find Millen Farms today at both Pugwash Farmers Market and Seaport Market We have fresh picked this morning strawberries at both markets. We will be a bit late getting to Seaport this morning because we are bringing fresh picked this morning berries....so we have to wait for them to be picked. We anticipate being at Seaport between 9:30 and 10am.
At Masstown Market we carry frozen wild blueberries year round and this recipe is to die for. And if you combine the health benefits of wild blueberries with dark chocolate perhaps we can call it a "healthy" dessert...ok, maybe not!! #wildblueberry , #canadianwildblueberry

RECIPE: NOVA SCOTIA BLUEBERRY GRUNT: 👩🍳 If Nova Scotia had an official dessert, it might just be Blueberry Grunt. Named for the sound it makes while cooking, packed with blueberries and made in a single pan on the stove.
FRUIT
1 quart blueberries [4 cups]
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
DUMPLINGS
2 cups flour
4 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon sugar [Use up to 2 tablespoons]
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon shortening
METHOD
Put berries, sugar and water in a pot, cover and boil gently until there is plenty of juice.
[For the dumplings,] sift flour, baking powder, salt and sugar in a bowl. Cut in the butter and shortening and add enough milk to make a soft biscuit dough. Drop by spoonfuls onto the hot blueberries in a pot. Cover pot tightly and do not peek for 15 minutes. Serve hot.
Did you know that blueberry grunt has it’s own Canada Post stamp?
