HOW TO MAKE IT

Let's cook.

01

In a medium saucepan, combine the whole milk, fine semolina, granulated sugar, and salt. Whisk well to combine.

02

Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring constantly with a whisk to prevent lumps.

03

Reduce the heat to low and continue to cook, stirring frequently, for 10-12 minutes, or until the semolina has thickened to a creamy pudding consistency.

04

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Let the pudding cool for 5 minutes.

05

Gently fold in the plain whole milk yogurt and 2 tablespoons of honey until fully incorporated.

06

Divide the warm pudding among 4 serving bowls. Allow to cool slightly before refrigerating for at least 1 hour to chill thoroughly.

07

Before serving, drizzle with additional honey and sprinkle with chopped walnuts.

Chef's Tips

For an extra creamy texture, you can pass the cooked semolina through a fine-mesh sieve before adding the yogurt and honey. Adjust the amount of sugar and honey to your preferred sweetness.

Easy Substitutions

Almond extract can be used instead of vanilla for a different flavor profile. If you don't have walnuts, use pistachios or almonds for garnish. For a dairy-free version, use plant-based milk and yogurt alternatives.
