Guest guest Posted June 20, 2007 Report Share Posted June 20, 2007 Hi, Here are two recipes I really like: " Snow Pudding " , so very good: INGREDIENTS: 1 Tablespoon plain gelatin powder with 1/4 cup cold water 1 C boiling water Artificial sweetener to equal a cup of sugar 1/4 cup lemon juice 3 egg whites PREPARATION: 1. Mix the gelatin with the cold water. 2. Add boiling water and stir to dissolve. 3. Add sweetener and lemon juice. Put in refrigerator to cool, stirring every 10 minutes or so, until it begins to thicken (this could take up to an hour). My mother's recipe says the spoon should " leave a trail " when you stir it, but if the mixture is obviously thickening, it works. 4. With mixer on high, beat gelatin mixture until fully frothy, 1-2 minutes. A whisk attachment helps. You can use a regular whisk, but be prepared for some arm exercise! 5. Add egg whites and beat until stiff (soft peaks are good enough if they hold their shape fairly well). This might be another 2-5 minutes, so keep checking. Leave in bowl or transfer to another bowl or mold. Refrigerate - you can serve it any time, but it will set up well in about 15 minutes.

Whisk the whole eggs, yolks, honey and vanilla together until yellow and frothy. 2. Pour the milk into a saucepan and heat until just below boiling. 3. Whisking constantly, add the egg mixture in a slow steady stream. 4. Pour the custard through a fine-mesh sieve into 4 ramekins or custard cups. 5. Skim off any foam and sprinkle the tops with the nutmeg and mace. 6. Place the ramekins into a baking dish and put the dish on the middle rack of the oven.. 7. Carefully pour enough boiling water into the dish to reach halfway up the sides of the custard cups. 8. Reduce heat to 350°F and cook for 30 minutes or until the custard is set. Do not allow the water around the custard to come to a boil or the custard will become grainy. To serve: Serve the custard chilled or at room temperature.
