Biancomangiare Recipe
Report
Biancomangiare is a fresh and fragrant spoon dessert made with very few ingredients.It's basically a pudding made from fresh whole milk, with no eggs, no cream and no gelatin. In fact, a little cornstarch is enough to thicken Biancomangiare, so it's also gluten-free.This recipe belongs to the Sicilian tradition but is also popular in Sardinia (Papai-Biancu). Its execution is really very simple, requiring a few minutes (besides cooling in the refrigerator) and a few simple ingredients.

Ingredients
- 500 ml milk 2 cups, whole
- 100 g granulated sugar ½ cup
- 50 g cornstarch 4 tablespoons
- 1 lemon organic
- cinnamon powder for decoration
Instructions
- With the heat off, pour 50 g (4 tablespoons) of cornstarch into a saucepan. Then add a small amount of milk taken from the total, say 125 ml (½ cup).
- Mix well to form a smooth cream without lumps. Then add 100 g (½ cup) of granulated sugar and continue mixing.
- When you are sure there are no lumps, you can add the rest of the milk - 375 g (1 ½ cup) - and some lemon zest taken with a peeler.
- You can transfer the saucepan to the heat and start cooking over medium heat, stirring all the time. You will see that in about 3-4 minutes the consistency of the mixture will begin to change and become thicker and thicker. Continue stirring until it comes to a boil. When the first bubbles appear, do not turn off the heat, but continue stirring and cooking for 1-2 more minutes.
- Turn off the heat and remove the lemon zest. Traditionally, this milk cream is poured into a pudding mold. You can also opt for smaller single portion molds. Allow to cool and then refrigerate the Biancomangiare for at least 4 hours. PLEASE NOTE: I recommend wetting the inside of the mold before pouring in the cream. This will make it easier to remove the Biancomangiare from the mold.
- Unmold the Biancomangiare on a serving dish and sprinkle with a little cinnamon. PLEASE NOTE: I have suggested cinnamon powder, but you can use other decorations such as pistachios granules for example. Or you can enjoy the Biancomangiare plain, just with the flavor of lemon zest.
Notes
- PLEASE NOTE: These are the doses for a budino mold of about 18 cm (7 inch ) in diameter or for 4 single portion molds.
