Danish Red Berry Pudding (Rodgrod med Flode)
1 1/2 lbs (700 g) fresh raspberries or strawberries,
or a combination of the two, or 2-10 oz (300 g)
packages of frozen berries
3 Tbs (45 ml) sugar
2 Tbs (30 ml) arrowroot
1/4 cup (60 ml) cold water
1/4 cup (60 ml) slivered almonds
1/2 cup (125 ml) light cream (Half & Half)
If using fresh berries, remove any hulls and wash under cold water.
Drain and pat dry with paper towels. If using frozen berries, defrost
thoroughly. Puree the berries (juices and all) in an electric
blender. This should yield about 2 1/4 cups (310 ml) of berry puree.
Combine with the sugar in a stainless steel saucepan over moderate
heat. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, and remove from the heat.
Mix the arrowroot with the water to form a smooth paste, and mix this
into the berry mixture. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly,
until it simmers and has thickened. Do not boil. Allow to cool a
little, and pour into individual serving bowls or wine glasses.
Refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Garnish the top with a few slivered
almonds, and serve the cream in a pitcher to be added by the diners.
Serves 4 to 6.
