Summer Red Berry Pudding - Rote Grueze Recipe


Summer Red Berry Pudding - Rote Grueze Recipe
My mother made this every summer I was growing up. It's a traditional German recipe made easier by using tapioca. So good with heavy cream or as a topping for all sorts of other desserts.

Ingredients
  • 2 cups raspberries
  • 2 cups strawberries
  • 1 generous cup each: pitted dark cherries, red currants, blackberries and blueberries
  • 2 cups (or to taste) sugar
  • 1/2 to 2/3 cup minute tapioca
  • 1 TBS Grand Marnier (optional)

Directions
  1. Wash berries. Drain well.
  2. Slice strawberries,
  3. Carefully remove red currants from stems.
  4. Pit cherries.
  5. Place all berries in a large non-aluminum pan along with the sugar and tapioca.
  6. Add no liquid!
  7. Stir well and let sit about 5 minutes.
  8. Heat berries over medium-high heat, stirring, until mixture comes to a boil.
  9. Boil no longer than 5 minutes, or until cherries are softened and some of the other berries have burst.
  10. Mixture should coat a spoon and be a wonderful dark red.
  11. Remove from heat and stir in Grand Marnier if using.
  12. Let cool about 15 minutes in the pan, then scoop into a wide bowl and chill overnight.
  13. The pudding will be soft-set, not hard like Jello.
  14. Serve in a bowl with heavy cream, or use as a refreshing topping for pound or sponge cake, ice cream, custard, etc.

Sound delicious and I can imagine the colour ! Don't you love tapioca ,it reminds me of my grandma .She always used it with summer cherries --more tapioca than cherries to feed a huge group of grandkids staying on the farm for holidays .


Oh my, this sounds so wonderful. My mouth is watering just reading it. Can not wait to give it a go. Thank you so much for sharing.
