Instructions
- 1 Combine 4 ½ cups sugar, raspberries, 1 cup water, and lemon juice in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer, gently stirring occasionally, about 15 minutes. Add equal amounts more sugar and water, if needed, so liquid remains slightly above berries.
- 2 Stir flour, baking soda, and salt together in a medium bowl; cut in shortening with a pastry blender or tines of a fork to form pea-size pieces. Stir in ¾ cup buttermilk until dough comes together. Gradually add more buttermilk if dough seems stiff.
- 3 Drop dough into raspberry sauce, 1 tablespoon at a time; cover and simmer, about 5 minutes. Flip dumplings, cover, and cook 10 minutes more. Set aside before serving, 10 minutes.
