PLUM FLUMMERY



Plum Flummery image

This is a delicious fruity mousse with a great plum tang, making good use of pre-stewed plums, especially handy at that time of year when you have too many plums and quite enough jam, thank you very much! The preparation time is mostly waiting time for the mixture to chill sufficiently.

FLUMMERY



Flummery image

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.

BLUEBERRY FLUMMERY



Blueberry Flummery image

This is a recipe shared with me by my Mom, shared with her by her Mom. Grandmom was the wife of a career Navy man. An incredible woman! The mother of 6 children, lovingly raising the future of the world, loving my Grandfather and supporting our freedom. She would move their children and worldly possessions to be as close to my Grandfather as they could be, whenever and wherever the Navy needed Grandpop. Eventually they settled in NJ, known far and wide for its awesome produce, especially its blueberries. It just reminds me Of Mom and Grandmom's love and devotion to their families. Scoop a biscuit into a bowl and spoon blueberry sauce over biscuit, top with the chilled vanilla pudding, and oh my! Enjoy! Heaven on earth!

Time 40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 (3.5 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix
2 cups cold milk
2 pints fresh blueberries
½ cup white sugar, or more to taste
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 tablespoon white sugar
½ teaspoon salt
¼ cup vegetable oil
1 cup milk

Steps:

  • Whisk the pudding and 2 cups milk together in a bowl until thickened, about 2 minutes. Refrigerate the pudding until serving time.
  • Mix blueberries and 1/2 cup sugar in a large saucepan, and pour in enough water to just barely cover the berries. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, reduce heat to low, and simmer while you make the biscuits.
  • To make drop biscuits, mix flour, baking powder, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and salt together in a bowl. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture, and pour in vegetable oil and 1 cup of milk. Stir until the mixture forms a soft dough.
  • Bring the berry mixture back to a boil, and drop the biscuit dough into the boiling blueberries by heaping spoonfuls. Cover, and simmer over medium-low heat until the biscuit dough is cooked through, about 15 minutes. A knife inserted into a dumpling will come out clean. To serve, scoop a biscuit into a serving bowl, spoon blueberry sauce over, and top with chilled vanilla pudding.

BLACKBERRY FLUMMERY



Blackberry Flummery image

Flummery (from the Welsh llymru) is a sweet soft pudding that is made from stewed fruit and thickened with cornstarch. Traditional British flummeries were kind of like porridge as they were often oatmeal based and cooked to achieve a smooth and gelatinous texture; often sugar and milk was added and occasionally orange flower water. This recipe was brought over from the British Isles by our first settlers. From the New England chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947. I have copied the directions straight from the cookbook, but I believe that I might mix the cornstarch with a little water to avoid lumps.

PASSIONFRUIT FLUMMERY



Passionfruit Flummery image

The word flummery derives from the Welsh word 'llymru'. In Scotland, a flummery would include oatmeal; elsewhere in the British Isles, it was a sweet dessert made with fruit. This recipe is one I have adapted from the Australian publication by Reader's Digest of a book jam-packed with traditional Australian recipes: 'Family Recipe Scrapbook: tried and trusted recipes for today's cooks'. I bought the book in preparation for the 2005 Zaar World Tour, so I could track down familiar recipes I've eaten often or heard of but not previously eaten. What I love about the recipes in this book is that from whatever decade or centurey past they come, they have been updated to suit C21st tastes. This recipe harks back to "the days (in Australia) when many people had a passionfruit vine growing over the fence and kept a few chooks in the backyard, (when) this luscious flummery would have been an economical pudding". This is a prepare-ahead dessert, and the preparation and cooking times do not include the 6-8 hours needed for cooling. The probably Scottish origins of this particular flummery recipe are evident from the suggestion that it be served with shortbread biscuits.

Time 28m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 lemon
1 cup cold water
1/2 cup caster sugar
3 teaspoons gelatin
2 tablespoons boiling water
2 eggs, separated
1/2 cup passion fruit pulp (about 4-6 passionfruit)
shortbread cookie, to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Peel the rind from the lemon and then squeeze out the juice. Reserve 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. Combine the lemon rind, water and caster sugar in a medium saucepan and cook, stirring occasionally, over a medium heat, until the sugar dissolves and the syrup comes to the boil. Remove from the heat and discard the lemon rind from the syrup.
  • Combine the gelatine and boiling water in a heatproof jug and stir until the gelatine dissolves and the liquid is clear. Add the lemon juice and mix well to combine.
  • Put the egg yolks in a mixing bowl and whisk with a balloon whisk. Pour in the warm syrup in a thin stream followed by the gelatine mixture, whisking constantly until well-combined.
  • Cover and refrigerate until the mixture thickens and begins to set around the edges.
  • Beat the egg whites in a clean bowl until they form soft peaks when the beater is lifted upwards from the mixing bowl. Fold the egg white mixture and the passionfruit pulp into the lemon mixture.
  • Spoon into four 1-cup serving glasses, cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for 6 hours, or until set.
  • Serve with my Shortbreads Recipe #139166.

Tips:

  • Choose the right grains: Different grains have different textures and flavors. For a smooth and creamy flummery, use fine-grained grains like rice or oats. For a chewier texture, use medium-grained grains like barley or wheat berries.
  • Soak the grains overnight: Soaking the grains overnight helps break down the starches and makes them easier to digest. It also helps to reduce the cooking time.
  • Use a slow cooker or a double boiler: Slow cooking helps to create a smooth and creamy texture. If you don't have a slow cooker, you can use a double boiler.
  • Sweeten to taste: Flummery can be sweetened with sugar, honey, or maple syrup. Add sweetener to taste, depending on how sweet you like it.
  • Add spices and flavors: Flummery can be flavored with spices and herbs like cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, or vanilla. You can also add fruits, nuts, or seeds.
  • Serve warm or cold: Flummery can be served warm or cold. It's a versatile dish that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner.

Flummery is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many different ways. It's a great way to use up leftover grains, and it's also a healthy and nutritious meal. With a little creativity, you can create your own unique flummery recipes that your family and friends will love.
