Ginger-Pineapple Pudding
Ingredients
1 20-oz can crushed pineapple in its, own juice
1/4 cup lemon juice grated peel of 1 lemon, (i used more)
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 tsp finely minced fresh ginger
3 tbsp cornstarch mixed with 3 t water
Preparation
Mix all ingredients in a saucepan. Cook over moderate heat, stirring
constantly, until mixture comes to a boil and thickens. Cool slightly
before pouring into a crust.
To gild the lily:
If you do make this into a pie, garnishing with sliced bananas glazed
with heated, strained apricot preserves makes it even more festive.
The cookbook I got this from is anything but vlf, but here goes (I
highly recommend it if, like me, you find making elaborate desserts
for non-vlf friends a relaxing and enjoyable thing to do every now
and then): Marlene Sororsky, _The Dessert Lovers Cookbook_, Harper
and Row, 1985.)
