Title: Light Milk Pudding with Grape Pekmez (with photo)
Post by: farfallina on September 09, 2010, 03:09:27 pm
Finally I found a light dessert recipe that I liked. The pudding doesn't contain any sugar or fat! In fact I did not set my hopes up when I decided to prepare it but we really enjoyed it as soon as we got the first spoon.

I don't recommend you to taste before dressing though because it is practically tasteless! :)
Dressing turns it to be something else!

As for Pekmez dressing... It is something like molasses. I used a kind made of grapes. Since I didn't try any other grape molasses than Pekmez, I won't be of any help to tell you how similar they actually taste. For more information you can check Wiki (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pekmez)

I believe I could use this light pudding with some other sauces and dressings. I haven't tried yet. I update if I try any



Light Milk Pudding with Grape Pekmez:
Number of People: 8

Ingredients:

Milk Pudding:
20g rice flour
30g wheat starch
75g flour
200g water
1 litre semi-skimmed milk


Dressing:
1 cup of pekmez (like grape molasses)
1 cup of roughly chopped walnuts or hazelnuts
Cinnamon

Preparation:

    * Mix water, rice flour, wheat starch and flour for 30 seconds on Speed 3-4
    * Add milk and cook for 10 minutes at 90ºC on Speed 4
    * Cook for 4 minutes at 100ºC on Speed 4
    * Wet a casserole with a bit of water (I used 20x30cm size)
    * Pour your pudding into casserole and let it cool down at room temperature
    * After cooled down, let it rest in the fridge for 2-3 hours


    * Cut pudding into 8 equal pieces, take into serving plates
    * Make a "+" shaped incision in the center of each pudding using a sharp knife
    * Sprinkle with cinnamon. Dress with a few dessert spoons pekmez, sprinkle with some walnuts and serve



Afiyet olsun :)


Note: Dress with pekmez, cinnamon and walnuts just before you serve, not in advance!

It is adapted from the book named Modern Turkish Kitchen by Alev Kaman

yum farfallina, it does look tempting. looks like it has a smooth  'set' consistency which is offset by the crunchy nuts and sweet sauce...i think i can almost taste it!

Guess we could use maple syrup instead of grape molasses which I have never seen.

I never used maple syrup JD
I don't know how it would be exactly. You can give it a try
Just remember that since this is a light recipe and the pudding is almost tasteless so the dressing should be tasty enough to balance

Good one farfallina.  A bit like blancmange - that Pekmez & nuts would be the highlight I think ?  :-* :-*

We can buy a product called kitchul treacle which may be similar in flavour?
