This delicate Irish pudding combines the natural gel properties of dried carrageen moss with the bright zest of lemon and the warmth of honey. The result is a light, airy dessert that sets beautifully without being heavy. The infusion process extracts a subtle oceanic freshness from the carrageen, which pairs surprisingly well with the sweet-tart citrus profile. Whipped cream and beaten egg whites are folded in at the end to create a cloud-like texture that melts on the tongue. It is an elegant, traditional treat perfect for spring dinners or as a refreshing finish to a rich meal.

This delicate Irish pudding combines the natural gel properties of dried carrageen moss with the bright zest of lemon and the warmth of honey. The result is a light, airy dessert that sets beautifully without being heavy. The infusion process extracts a subtle oceanic freshness from the carrageen, which pairs surprisingly well with the sweet-tart citrus profile.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Soak the dried carrageen in hot water to cover for about 15 minutes, then drain, discarding the soaking liquid.
  2. Place the soaked carrageen into a saucepan with 600 ml fresh water, honey, lemon juice, and lemon rind.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 25-30 minutes to extract the gel.
  4. Strain the liquid through a fine-mesh sieve to remove the carrageen solids, discarding the solids.
  5. Allow the strained liquid to cool slightly until it is warm but not hot.
  6. In a separate bowl, gently fold the whipped cream into the beaten egg white.
  7. Gently fold the egg white and cream mixture into the cooled carrageen liquid until just combined.
  8. Pour the mixture into a greased mold and refrigerate until set.
