How to Make Finnish Cranberry Whip Vatkattu Marjapuuro
- Combine 2 cups fresh or frozen cranberries and 1 1/2 cups water in a medium saucepan.
- Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat to low and simmer uncovered for 8-10 minutes, or until most of the cranberries have burst.
- Strain the cranberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the skins. Reserve the juice and discard the skins.
- Return the cranberry juice to the saucepan.
- Add 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup water, and a pinch of salt (about 1/4 teaspoon).
- Bring the mixture back to a boil over medium heat.
- Gradually whisk in 1/2 cup fine farina (cream of wheat or similar) ensuring no lumps form. Continue whisking constantly.
- Reduce heat to low and cook, stirring frequently, for 3-5 minutes, or until the mixture has thickened to a pudding-like consistency.
- Pour the cranberry mixture into a medium bowl.
- Beat with an electric mixer on high speed for 3-5 minutes, or until the pudding becomes light pink, fluffy, and has increased in volume.
