Wine Pudding

4 servings

Ingredients

• 1 bottle Rhine wine
• 12 pcs egg yolks
• 250 g sugar
• 50 g calf's foot jelly or gelatin
• 1 pcs lemon (juice and zest)
• cinnamon (whole) (a little)

Instructions

1. Place wine, sugar, and spices on the heat, covered, and bring to a boil.
2. Add the gelatin and cook thoroughly, then remove the spices.
3. Take the pot off the heat and carefully stir in the egg yolks, whisked with a little cold water, to prevent them from curdling.
4. Quickly pour the mixture into a bowl, stir for a few more minutes, and fill into a porcelain mold brushed with almond oil.
5. Once cooled, invert the pudding and serve with a vanilla sauce.
