What is Plum Sauce Pudding?
Plum sauce pudding pairs Turkish muhallebi—a smooth pudding made with milk, sugar and a thickener such as starch or rice flour—with a topping of plum sauce. The fruit brings a tart-sweet note and a vivid contrast to the mild, creamy base.
It is usually served chilled, as a simple dessert at home or in pastry shops, and works well after a meal or alongside tea or coffee. Its soft texture makes the fruit topping stand out without being heavy in flavour. The pudding is mainly a source of carbohydrates; a 100 g portion provides 3.1 g of protein. For a lighter version, keep the sugar modest and let ripe plums provide more of the sauce’s sweetness.
