INSTRUCTIONS
Apricot Paste Pudding nuts, peeled pistachios, and a pinch of cinnamon
Dilute cornflour starch in 1/2 cup cold water and set aside. Soak
gamar id-din with the sugar in 2 cups boiling water for 2 hours, then
mash until no lumps are left. Place the gamar id-din mix in a
saucepan, add the cardamom seeds and bring rapidly to a boil while
stirring. As soon as it boils, lower the heat and slowly add the
diluted cornflour starch, stirring constantly. Allow it to reach
boiling point once again, then let it bubble for 2 or 3 minutes only.
As you feel the mix beginning to thicken, remove it from heat. Pour
into a serving dish or four individual bowls and chill. Serve cold,
topped with nut mixture. Gamar id-din: A paste made from cooked
apricots. Unique to the Middle East. Can be bought all over the world.
