   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    3      cups          cranberry juice -- bottled or canned
    6      tablespoons   sugar
      1/2  cup           uncooked cream-of-wheat
 
 (A Finnish dessert)
 
 In a 1 1/2 to 2 quart saucepan, bring the cranberry juice to a boil over modera
 te heat.  While the juice boils, sprinkle in the sugar, a little at a time, and
  then slowly add the Cream-of-Wheat, stirring briskly with a wooden spoon.  Red
 uce the heat and simmer for 6 to 8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mi
 xture becomes a thick puree.
 With a rubber spatula, transfer the puree from the saucepan to a large mixing b
 owl.  Use an electric mixer for the next step.  (Although it is possible to mak
 e vatkattu marjapuuro with a wire wisk, it is scarcely practical; an hour of vi
 gorous whisking might be required.)
 Beat with the mixer set a high speed for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the pudding
  has tripled in volume, is a delicate pink color and is very light and fluffy. 
  Pour into a large bowl, or individual dessert bowl, and keep no longer than a 
 few hours before serving at room temprature.
 Note: If you wish to make this dessert with a nontart juice such as apple, stra
 wberry or raspberry, add a tablesppon of lemon juice.
