EDITORS COMMENTS
Devon Apple Dumpling: A Delightful Tradition from the West Country, England, 1927 This charming photograph captures the essence of a quintessential Devonshire dessert, the Devon Apple Dumpling, also known as an 'Opple Dumplin' in the local dialect. The large, round dumpling, generously covered in golden, crisp pastry, sits proudly on a plate, ready to be savored. The apple filling, sweet and succulent, peeks out from beneath the pastry, invitingly. The scene is set in the 1920s, an era of elegance and refinement, as evidenced by the fine tableware and the dainty fork and spoon placed next to the dumpling. Yet, the hearty, rustic nature of this West Country dessert remains undiminished. The Devon Apple Dumpling is a cherished tradition in Devon, England, and has been enjoyed for generations. The name 'Opple Dumplin' is derived from the Devon dialect, with 'opple' meaning apple and 'dumplin' referring to the dumpling itself. This dessert is a testament to the rich culinary heritage of the region and the enduring appeal of simple, homemade treats. As you gaze at this image, you can almost hear the warm, inviting voice of a local resident, encouraging you to 'Yer be a Whoopin Opple Dumplin vor ee. Now Vall to.' (You'll be a happy apple dumpling eater. Come and take it.) and indulge in the delightful flavors of this timeless Devonshire dessert.
