This has been my Mom's specialty for as long as I can remember. This is another recipe that people not from Mennonite background look at and just shake their heads! (Pudding from CEREAL!!??!!)However, to me, it remains a childhood memory and a traditional Mennonite dish that reminds me of my heritage. My mom always served this with strawberry or raspberry sauce. Ingredients:
3 cups milk |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 cup cream of wheat |
1/2 cup sugar |
4 egg yolks |
4 egg whites |
2 tablespoons sugar |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla |
Directions:
1. Beat egg whites until foamy.
2. Add 2 tbsp sugar and continue beating until meringue stands in soft peaks and then set aside.
3. Heat milk and salt to a full boil, slowly sprinkle in cream of wheat, stirring constantly until mixture thickens.
4. Beat sugar and egg yolks and very slowly add to hot mixture.
5. Continue cooking on low heat for 3 minutes longer.
6. Lastly, fold hot mixture into meringue and add vanilla.
7. Pour into serving dishes and cool.
8. Serve with custard sauce or fruit sauce.
