My fancy peasant’s gruel. Semolina gruel that turned into porridge like consistency (see I can afford the wheat, no need to water it down) with cut up wiener pieces in it. I’m sometimes fancy like this.

    Pow, right in the childhood! My mother sometimes made semolina gruel but we always ate it with cinnamon and sugar. This abomination on the other hand…

      At some point in my adult life I realized that I could make semolina with milk whenever I want. I just cook it in milk to the desired thickness and eat it like that. Love it

      Ditto! My mum would jazz it up a tad by making an apple sauce to go with it. To this day it’s so memorable for me as a delicious desert but for some reason I’ve not attempted to make it myself

      I’m just embracing my inner peasant in this ever increasing modern techno-feudalistic worldscape.

      Yep, nostalgia is a powerful thing. We used to eat it with vanilla sugar as kids, that works wonderfully well too imho.
