Flavors from the past"},"content":{"rendered":"

Peach pudding has a nostalgic flavor, a soft texture, and is easy to make. All you need is water, fruit, sugar, and a thickener (agar-agar or gelatin sheets). It\u2019s a simple dessert that a scoop of ice cream or a spoonful of whipped cream can make shine like a dancing star.<\/p>\n

I can\u2019t even tell you how many fruit puddings and jellies I ate during my childhood.<\/p>\n

Once upon a time<\/h4>\n

Summers long ago were full of scents, flavors, and colors.<\/span><\/p>\n

Today, many things have changed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Desserts like fruit puddings haven\u2019t stood the test of time. In the soft light of a hot afternoon spent leafing through the pages of family cookbooks, I rediscovered the forgotten flavor of peach pudding, my favorites, perpetually overshadowed by those made with apricots and plums.<\/span><\/p>\n

The overripe fruit, the slightly bruised kind, and therefore unsuitable for the fruit bowl served at the end of a meal, was transformed.<\/span><\/p>\n

Not just jams, but also puddings and jellies. The recipe and method are practically identical, but fruit puddings are so satisfying because they\u2019re a dessert anyone can make, even a home cook with little experience.<\/span><\/p>\n

But you have to give the pudding time to set. My advice?<\/span><\/p>\n

Make the pudding the day before and let it chill in the fridge overnight.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n
