Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams Strawberries (hulled and chopped)
- 250 grams Raspberries
- 150 grams Red currants
- 150 grams Sugar
- 500 milliliters Water
- 3 tablespoons Potato starch
- 4 tablespoons Cold water
- 200 milliliters Heavy cream (for serving)
Instructions
In a large saucepan, combine the strawberries, raspberries, red currants, sugar, and 500 milliliters of water.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer. Stir occasionally to allow the sugar to dissolve and the berries to release their juices. Simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the fruit is soft.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a clean bowl or saucepan. Use the back of a spoon to press the berries and extract as much juice as possible. Discard the pulp.
Return the strained berry juice to the saucepan and bring it to a gentle simmer over low heat.
In a small bowl, mix the potato starch with 4 tablespoons of cold water to create a slurry.
Slowly pour the potato starch slurry into the simmering berry juice while constantly whisking. Continue to whisk until the mixture thickens to a pudding-like consistency, about 1–2 minutes. Remove from heat.
Pour the thickened berry pudding into serving bowls or a large serving dish. Allow it to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set.
Just before serving, lightly whip the heavy cream until it reaches soft peaks.
Serve the Rødgrød med Fløde chilled with a dollop of fresh whipped cream on top.
