1 1/4 c Flour -- all-purpose

1/3 c Yellow cornmeal

1 tb Dill -- finely chopped

2 1/2 ts Baking powder

1/2 ts Salt

3 tb Vegetable shortening -- chilld

1 c Milk

In a medium bowl, combine the first 5 ingredients. With 2 knives or your fingers, cut in the shortening until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the milk, stirring with a fork, just until the mixture holds together. With a large spoon, drop dumpling batter in 8 spoonfuls over the stew. Simmer over medium-low heat, covered, about 16 minutes, or until the dumplings are done.
