Flummery occurs in manuscript menus for Scottish feasts as early as the fifteenth century. The ingredients varied but the basis was always soaked cereal, the liquid from which sets to a clear jelly. This is flavoured with orange juice or rosewater and topped with cream and honey, with or without alcohol.

This recipe is a standard flummery, it's a great starting off point. The jelly can be any flavour you like and you can add different fruit such as passionfruit pulp or chopped up strawberries, it all depends what you like. Also, I prefer low-cal ingredients so I've used equal sugar, lite jelly and skim milk but it works with the regular granualated sugar and whole milk too. This came from my grandmother and I made it because my dad was dieing to have it again.

Flummery (from the Welsh llymru) is a sweet soft pudding that is made from stewed fruit and thickened with cornstarch. Traditional British flummeries were kind of like porridge as they were often oatmeal based and cooked to achieve a smooth and gelatinous texture; often sugar and milk was added and occasionally orange flower water. This recipe was brought over from the British Isles by our first settlers. From the New England chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947. I have copied the directions straight from the cookbook, but I believe that I might mix the cornstarch with a little water to avoid lumps.

This is a recipe shared with me by my Mom, shared with her by her Mom. Grandmom was the wife of a career Navy man. An incredible woman! The mother of 6 children, lovingly raising the future of the world, loving my Grandfather and supporting our freedom. She would move their children and worldly possessions to be as close to my Grandfather as they could be, whenever and wherever the Navy needed Grandpop. Eventually they settled in NJ, known far and wide for its awesome produce, especially its blueberries. It just reminds me Of Mom and Grandmom's love and devotion to their families. Scoop a biscuit into a bowl and spoon blueberry sauce over biscuit, top with the chilled vanilla pudding, and oh my! Enjoy! Heaven on earth!

This is a delicious fruity mousse with a great plum tang, making good use of pre-stewed plums, especially handy at that time of year when you have too many plums and quite enough jam, thank you very much! The preparation time is mostly waiting time for the mixture to chill sufficiently.

The word flummery derives from the Welsh word 'llymru'. In Scotland, a flummery would include oatmeal; elsewhere in the British Isles, it was a sweet dessert made with fruit. This recipe is one I have adapted from the Australian publication by Reader's Digest of a book jam-packed with traditional Australian recipes: 'Family Recipe Scrapbook: tried and trusted recipes for today's cooks'. I bought the book in preparation for the 2005 Zaar World Tour, so I could track down familiar recipes I've eaten often or heard of but not previously eaten. What I love about the recipes in this book is that from whatever decade or centurey past they come, they have been updated to suit C21st tastes. This recipe harks back to "the days (in Australia) when many people had a passionfruit vine growing over the fence and kept a few chooks in the backyard, (when) this luscious flummery would have been an economical pudding". This is a prepare-ahead dessert, and the preparation and cooking times do not include the 6-8 hours needed for cooling. The probably Scottish origins of this particular flummery recipe are evident from the suggestion that it be served with shortbread biscuits.
