Musmehlmus (Whole Wheat Mush)


Servings: 4
Ingredients:

  • 1 1/2 l  Milk (1 1/2 qt)
  • 200 g  Musmehl flour (7 oz) (a
  • -coarsely ground wheat
  • -flour,
  • In olden times, spelt flour,
  • -from which only
  • Part of the bran has been
  • -removed)
  • 2 sl Rye bread, cubed
  • 50 g  Butter (3 1/2 Tbsp)

From grandmother’s more thrifty times; rarely encountered today.

Bring the milk to a boil. Stirring constantly, add the Musmehl flour. Keep
at a low boil for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring constantly. When ready to
serve, with a spoon carefully pour the melted butter over the mush (which
should already have formed a skin), and put the ryebread cubes on top. The
mush tastes best when eaten from a copper skillet, and must have a
‘Schuepet’ [browned crust on the bottom].

Serves 4.
