Title: SWEET ALMOND PUDDING WITH RED DATES
Categories: Chinese, Desserts
Yield: 4 servings
1/3 c Sweet rice flour
2 tb + 2 t almond powder
1/2 c Cold water
3 c Cold milk
1/4 c Granulated sugar
1/4 c Sliced pitted red dates
3 tb Cold milk, if needed
This unusual dish as a dessert, as a mid-way course in
a large dinner, or as a snack. Pudding may be
misleading, since it is really a thick, hot soup.
In small bowl, mix rice flour & almond powder; add
cold water a little at a time to make a thick, smooth
paste. Thin further with 1/2 cup of milk. Pour into
heavy saucepan, add remaining milk, and slowly heat to
just under boiling, stirring constantly. Keep
stirring to prevent lumping & burning. Turn off heat,
cover & remove to cool place. You can prepare this
first stage anytime ahead of dinner, keep covered &
refrigerated. Pudding should be finished just before
serving.
Just before serving, reheat pudding, stirring
constantly. When hot, add sugar a little at a time.
Keep stirring. Add sliced dates. Cook just under
boiling point for 1 minute. Add extra milk if pudding
becomes too thick: it should have consistency of
melted ice cream. Pour into individual bowls & serve
hot.
