2 cups milk
1 ½ tablespoons white sugar

GRIEßBREI (GERMAN SEMOLINA PUDDING)



Grießbrei (German Semolina Pudding) image

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! :)

Time 45m

Yield 16-18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 liters whole milk
1 1/2-2 cups sugar
6 tablespoons butter
1 cup semolina
4 extra large eggs
1 tablespoon pure vanilla extract

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.

Tips:

  • Choose the right semolina: Use fine or medium semolina for a smooth and creamy pudding. Coarse semolina will result in a grainier texture.
  • Don't overcook the semolina: Cook the semolina until it has absorbed all of the liquid and is tender, but not mushy. Overcooked semolina will become gluey.
  • Use whole milk for a richer flavor: Whole milk will give your Grießbrei a richer flavor and creamier texture. You can also use low-fat or skim milk, but the pudding will be less rich.
  • Sweeten the Grießbrei to your taste: Add sugar or other sweeteners to the pudding to taste. You can also use flavored extracts, such as vanilla or almond, to enhance the flavor.
  • Serve Grießbrei warm or cold: Grießbrei can be served warm or cold. If you are serving it warm, top it with fresh fruit, nuts, or a dollop of whipped cream. If you are serving it cold, chill it for at least 2 hours before serving.

Conclusion:

Grießbrei is a simple but delicious German semolina pudding that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste. With its creamy texture and mild flavor, Grießbrei is a comfort food that is sure to please everyone at the table.
