Raspberry Semolina Mousse (Estonian Roosamanna Ehk Mannavaht)
Estonia raspberry semolina mousse is a wonderful dessert treat usually served with milk or cream. It is also loved as a breakfast dish. The mousse can be made from all sorts of berry juice, whatever you have on hand or love. Berry picking is a national pass time in Estonia and they have some pretty interesting berries there. The more you whisk up this dessert, the lighter and fluffier it gets.
1 cup concentrated juice, such as; cranberry, redcurrant, cherry, raspberry, strawberry, blackcurrant
about 4 cups of water or 1 quart berry juice of your choice.
¾ cup wheat semolina/cream of wheat
½ cup sugar
Dilute the juice with enough water to make up 1 qt of liquid (or simply use a quart of cranberry juice drink or something similar). Add sugar to taste and bring everything slowly to the boil.
Pour semolina quickly into the boiling juice, stirring vigorously to avoid any clumps. Simmer in a low heat for about 15 minutes, stirring regularly, until semolina has expanded and you have a thick sweet porridge. Taste, add more sugar, if necessary, or some vanilla sugar, grated lemon or lime zest.
Pour into a large bowl and let cool.
Whisk the cool sweet porridge until it's couple of shades lighter and a lot fluffier and lighter in texture.
Serve with cold milk.
Makes 4 servings.
