PRUNE PUDDING



Prune Pudding image

This smooth, satisfying pudding recipe served at Franklin Delano Roosevelt's White House originally called for leaving the prunes in water overnight. But now that pitted prunes are readily available, an hour's soak is all you need to speed the cooking process. Sweet, but not overly so, it lends itself to delicious variations: add a bit of cardamom; sprinkle with walnuts; spoon some over thick, creamy yogurt; or try all of these together. The strong cinnamon flavor and dark color make the pudding ideal for autumn and holiday desserts. The portions here may seem small, but as with any dish involving prunes, a little goes a long way.

Time 2h35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

1/2 pound (about 2 dozen medium-size) pitted prunes
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon powdered cinnamon
1 1-inch cinnamon stick
3 tablespoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • Place prunes in a medium-size saucepan, pour in 2 cups hot water and let stand for 1 hour. Transfer saucepan to the stove and bring prunes to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, for 5 to 10 minutes until soft.
  • Drain prunes, reserving the liquid, and roughly chop. Add more hot water to the reserved prune water so it totals 2 cups. Place prunes and prune water back in the saucepan and add the sugar, powdered cinnamon and cinnamon stick. Stir to combine and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make a slurry by mixing the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons cold water. Add the slurry to the prune mixture and cook over low heat for 5 minutes, stirring constantly, to thicken mixture. Remove the cinnamon stick and ladle the pudding into ramekins. Let cool, then chill in the refrigerator. Serve cold.

TORTA WITH PRUNES



Torta with Prunes image

Italians love prugne, the name for both fresh and dried plums (which we call prunes). Italy is one of Europe's largest plum-producers, and the fresh fruit is a favorite in season. But dried plums, prugne secche, are in such demand year-round-for snacking, cooking, and baking-that today Italy ranks as one of the world's biggest importers of prunes (many tons of them grown in California!). I, too, love prugne secche, particularly in crostatas (tarts) and torte such as this cake, which I found in Basilicata. Morsels of prune, poached in a wine syrup, dot the golden, buttery cake, and each bite bursts with their concentrated essence of fruit flavor. It's a great treat for the holidays, or on any winter's day-a delicious reminder of the sweet taste of summer.

Yield a 9-inch cake, serving 8 or more

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 cups (about 7 ounces) pitted prunes (preferably soft, not old and dry)
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon sugar
Finely grated zest of 1 lemon (about 2 teaspoons)
1 cup red wine
12 tablespoons (1 1/2 sticks) butter, at room temperature
1 tablespoon fine dry bread crumbs
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
4 large eggs, separated
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
A 9-inch springform pan; standing electric mixer with paddle and whisk attachments (or a hand whisk)

Steps:

  • To poach the prunes: Cut them into bite-sized morsels. Put them in a small saucepan with 1/3 cup of the sugar, the lemon zest, and the wine. Set the pan over medium-low heat, and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally to dissolve the sugar. Let the syrup bubble gently and steadily for 15 minutes or so, reducing slowly, until it has thickened and barely covers the shiny poached prunes. Leave the prunes in the syrup to cool completely, then drain through a sieve, collecting and saving the remaining syrup, about 1/4 cup. (You can poach the prunes hours or a day ahead of time and leave them soaking in the syrup. Drain well before assembling the cake.)
  • To make the cake: Arrange a rack in the center of the oven, and heat to 350°. Secure the bottom disk in the springform, and grease the inside surfaces with a tablespoon of the soft butter. Stir the bread crumbs and a tablespoon of sugar together. Coat the buttered bottom and sides of the cake pan completely with the crumb mixture, and shake out any loose crumbs.
  • Sift together the flour, baking powder, and baking soda.
  • Put the remaining sugar and butter in the mixer bowl and, using the paddle attachment, cream together for several minutes on high speed, scraping down the bowl several times, until light and smooth.
  • Beat in the egg yolks one at a time; scrape down the bowl, and fluff up the batter on high speed after incorporating each yolk. On low speed, blend in the dry ingredients, mixing just until completely moistened and incorporated.
  • In a clean bowl, whip the egg whites with the salt to firm peaks, using the whisk attachment or a hand whisk. Stir in a third of the whites to lighten the cake batter, then gently fold in the remainder. Scrape the batter into the prepared pan, and spread it to fill the springform in a flat, even layer.
  • Scatter the drained prune pieces all over the top of the batter, spaced evenly, covering the whole cake. Put the pan in the oven, and bake for about 45 minutes (rotating it after 25 minutes), as the batter rises around the prune pieces. When the top is golden brown and a cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean, remove the cake to a wire cooling rack. Drizzle the remaining wine syrup all over the top of the warm cake, and let it cool for 1/2 hour or so before loosening and removing the side ring.
  • Serve the torta slightly warm or at room temperature, cut in wedges-plain or topped with whipped cream.

MRS. VISNEVSKIS' PLUMJU PUTAS (PRUNE WHIP)



Mrs. Visnevskis' Plumju Putas (Prune Whip) image

My grandfather loved prunes, but I don't know too many folks who still do; besides me, that is. This is from a 1965 fund-raising cookbook for Toronto's Women's College Hospital.

Provided by Lennie

Categories     Dessert

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 1/2 cups pitted prunes
2 tablespoons icing sugar
1 teaspoon finely grated orange rind
1 cup whipping cream
1 tablespoon white sugar

Steps:

  • Put cooked stone-free prunes through a sieve, then mix the pulp thoroughly with the icing sugar and 1/2 tsp orange rind.
  • Whip the cream with the white sugar, then fold into the prune mixture.
  • Place in a serving bowl and sprinkle remaining 1/2 tsp orange rind on top; chill thoroughly before serving.

Tips:

  • Use ripe prunes: Softer prunes will result in a smoother, creamier whip.
  • Soak the prunes in hot water: This will help to plump them up and make them easier to blend.
  • Chill the prunes before whipping: This will help the whip to hold its shape.
  • Use a high-powered blender: This will help to create a smooth, creamy whip.
  • Add a little bit of lemon juice or vinegar: This will help to balance out the sweetness of the prunes.
  • Serve the whip immediately: It will start to lose its shape after a few hours.
