Simmer, partially covered, 15 minutes. Skim fat off surface of broth. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, baking powder, celery seeds, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cut shortening into small pieces and use your fingers to rub it in until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add milk and stir just until a sticky dough forms.
