FLUMMERY

Flummery occurs in manuscript menus for Scottish feasts as early as the fifteenth century. The ingredients varied but the basis was always soaked cereal, the liquid from which sets to a clear jelly. This is flavoured with orange juice or rosewater and topped with cream and honey, with or without alcohol.

This recipe is so very different from the one already posted on this website. How can you go wrong with fruit and whiskey? Found on Irish Abroad, a recipe by Margaret Johnson. Can't wait to try it. If you don't feel like baking, this colorful make-ahead dessert is just the ticket. PREP TIME DOESNT INCLUDE REFRIGERATION TIME

2/3 cup mccann's irish oatmeal, quick-cooking (not instant)
4 cups strawberries, hulled
5 tablespoons sugar

  • Whip the cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Fold in the yogurt or sour cream, the remaining 4 tablespoons of sugar, the whiskey, and oatmeal.
  • Spoon 1 to 2 tablespoons of the strawberries into the bottom of each glass. Spoon 1 to 2 tablespoons of the oatmeal-cream mixture over the berries. Repeat the layers.
  • Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours, or until set. At serving time, divide the blueberries on top of each.
