Flour Dumplings (Sinkers/Spinners) Recipe #183964
There are many varieties of dumplings; the flour dumpling is the most popular in the Caribbean and the simplest to make.
In Bermuda, most people call these sinkers because they don't rise to the top. I usually add a little sugar and sometimes parsley, but this is how a friend of mine does hers.
