Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400F.
- Butter a 15 X 13 inch baking pan generously and sprinkle with a generous amount of semolina to coat (the way you would flour a pan).
- In a large pot, scald milk with 1 1/2 cups of sugar.
- Taste the milk to see how sweet it is.
- If you want it sweeter, add up to 1/2 cup more sugar.
- Add butter.
- When butter has melted, add semolina in a thin stream, whisking constantly.
- Bring to the boil and lower heat so that it dosn"t boil too quickly, whisking all the time.
- It will thicken quickly.
- Once thick, remove from heat and cool for 5 minutes.
- Quickly whisk in eggs and keep whisking to incorporate them without curdling them.
- Add vanilla extract.
- Pour into prepared pan and bake for approximately 30-40 minutes, or until top of custard is flecked with golden-brown patches.
- Remove, dust with cinnamon, and cool.
- Note: This is a very plain pudding, and good in its plain-ness. If you want a little flavour boost, stir in some freshly-grated lemon zest to the custard just before baking.
GRIEßBREI (GERMAN SEMOLINA PUDDING)
This is a typical German dessert that I ate very often as a child. It is made from semolina and quite similar to pudding, only grainier. It is often eaten plain or with some cinnamon-sugar sprinkled on top. Another popular way of eating it is topped with berry compote. I hope youll enjoy this as much as we do! :)
