Sour cream porridge must be made from high fat (35%) natural sour cream, with no stabilizers or gelatin added. For the best results, use homemade sour cream.

  • Heat 2 1/2 dl (1 cup) whipping cream to 35 C (95 F), almost body temperature, then whisk in 2 tablespoons buttermilk.
  • Let stand at room temperature at least 8 hours, until thickened.
  • Simmer sour cream, covered, about 15 minutes.
  • Sift over 1/3 of the flour.
  • Simmer until the butterfat begins to leach out.
  • Skim off the fat.
  • Sift over the remaining flour and bring to a boil.
  • Bring the milk to a boil and thin the porridge to desired consistency.
  • Whisk until smooth.
  • Simmer about 10 minutes, and season with salt.
  • Serve with the fat, sugar and cinnamon.

It was a bit weird eating it. But not so different from what we are used to in Ukraine. I cold definitely eat this on a regular basis. Although my man will probably object since I might gain a few pounds.
This is pretty heavy food.

m m mmm, that was good stuff
