- To prepare semolina, pour 300 ml of milk into a small pot and heat it. When it boils, gradually add 2 tablespoons of semolina while stirring, and continue to stir for about 3 minutes until the mixture thickens. Turn off the heat, then mix in the wild berries and 1 tablespoon of honey or another healthy sweetener. Pour the semolina into the glass over the previously prepared base.
- Finally, prepare the forest fruit dressing by pouring about 30 ml of water into the pot and adding 40g of forest fruit. When it boils, gradually add 1 teaspoon of semolina while stirring, and continue to stir for about 1 minute until the mixture thickens. Turn off the heat and mix in half a teaspoon of honey or another healthy sweetener. Pour the dressing into the glass over the previously added semolina.
- Additionally, you can add a few pieces of chopped hazelnut and dark chocolate over the dressing.
Enjoy this sweet and refreshing dessert. Many remember semolina as a favorite childhood dessert, but its creamy taste also delights grown-ups. Due to its creamy texture and simple preparation, semolina has great potential in the preparation of quick and tasty desserts. If cooked in hazelnut or almond milk, the taste of semolina will acquire a special nutty aroma. Hazelnut milk may not be the most affordable, but you can easily make any nut milk yourself. You can find recipes for plant-based milks made from hazelnuts and almonds, as well as other nuts, here.
When preparing the dessert, semolina is combined with forest fruits, which gives it its characteristic freshness. In the absence of fresh forest fruits, frozen fruits are almost as good an alternative, as they do not lose their properties due to quick freezing. Forest fruits are known for their numerous beneficial effects on the body as they are rich in vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Together with semolina, forest fruits were also used for the sweet and refreshing topping that gives the dessert a special charm. It also goes well with a base of ground hazelnuts, which, with a special addition of rum, gives it a chocolate and nutty flavor.
Sometimes a new dessert is all we need to brighten up a seemingly ordinary day. Whether we are rewarding ourselves for accomplishments big or small, or simply looking to cheer ourselves up on a gloomy day, preparing a creative dessert can be a great idea. At the same time, desserts in a jar are especially sweet not only because of their charming look, but also because of their quick and easy preparation.
