📝📖 Recipe Instructions:

1. 🍶 Place the sour cream in a heavy-bottomed saucepan and bring it to a gentle simmer over medium heat, ensuring to stir constantly for a smooth consistency.

2. 🔥 Reduce the heat to low and let it barely simmer, uncovered, for about 1 hour. It’s crucial not to let it boil, so consider using a heat diffuser during this process.

3. 🌾 Slowly sift or strain enough all-purpose flour into the simmering sour cream to thicken it. A recommended amount is around 11-12 tablespoons for a luxuriously thick pudding.

4. 🥄 Whisk in the flour gradually, one tablespoon at a time. You’ll notice the cream thickening, pulling away from the sides of the pan. If the sour cream is rich, butter may start forming; remove it with a spoon and set it aside.

5. 🥛 Stir in enough hot milk to achieve a porridge-like consistency. Add sugar and salt to taste, infusing sweetness and balance into the pudding.

6. 🍲 Serve the Rommegrot in festive bowls, garnishing generously with melted butter, sugar, and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon. This trio of toppings adds layers of flavor and a visually appealing touch to your Christmas treat.

🎁🎅 Tips for a Perfect Rommegrot:

• 🌡️ Maintain a gentle simmer: Ensure the sour cream simmers gently without reaching a boil to achieve the desired creamy consistency.
• 🍚 Gradual thickening: Add flour slowly, whisking continuously to avoid lumps and ensure a velvety texture.
• 🧈 Save the butter: If your sour cream is rich, don’t discard the separated butter; it adds an extra layer of richness when served on top.
