Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Fresh or frozen cranberries
- 1 liters Water
- 100 grams Sugar
- 50 grams Rye flour
- 1 teaspoon Salt
Instructions
1. In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the cranberries and water. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
2. Once the cranberries begin to pop, lower the heat and let the mixture simmer gently for about 10 minutes until the cranberries are soft and have released their juices.
3. Remove the saucepan from the heat and carefully strain the mixture through a fine sieve or cheesecloth into a clean bowl. Use the back of a spoon to press the cranberry pulp to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.
4. Pour the cranberry liquid back into the saucepan and place it on medium heat.
5. Gradually whisk in the rye flour to the cranberry liquid, ensuring there are no lumps. Continue stirring constantly to create a smooth mixture.
6. Add sugar and salt to taste, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely.
7. Reduce the heat and simmer the pudding gently for 10-15 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent sticking or burning. The pudding will thicken as it cooks.
8. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the pudding cool slightly. As it cools, it will thicken further.
9. Serve warm or at room temperature. You can enjoy it plain or with a drizzle of cream or a dollop of whipped cream on top for extra richness.
