Blackberry Flummery image

This recipe is about 150 years old. It was given to me by a friend in Plymouth, MA. It had been handed down in her family for generations. Back then, people had wild blackberries,always had cornstarch. Lemons and sugar were expensive, so this was made for special occasions.
