Make semolina porridge yourself: ingredients for the recipe

You don’t need many ingredients for the basic recipe. However, you can give your semolina pudding the right kick with a few extra ingredients.

• For your semolina porridge, you need milk, sugar, a pinch of salt, and of course wheat semolina. For one liter of milk, take 200g of semolina and, depending on your taste, about 80g of sugar.
• Your semolina pudding will have a much finer taste if you replace part of the milk with cream. You can also add some butter to the milk instead of the cream.
• A vanilla pod gives your semolina a fine and subtle note. Grate the pulp into the milk and leave the vanilla bean in the milk until it boils. Alternatively, add vanilla sugar to the milk.
• Your homemade semolina porridge will get a fruity note with the juice of an organic lemon.
• Cinnamon and raw cane sugar are classic ingredients for the semolina porridge. Stir a little cinnamon into the finished semolina pudding and sprinkle the surface with cinnamon and raw cane sugar.
• Fresh fruits taste delicious with semolina porridge. In particular, berries such as blackberries, blueberries, or strawberries harmonize well with the milk dish.
• In the winter months, serve your homemade semolina porridge with compotes, such as plum compote, or red fruit jelly.
• Tip: The adults might be happy about a small shot of fruit liqueur to go with the semolina pudding, such as strawberry liqueur.
