Abstract

Abstract A dry semolina dessert powdered composition comprising fine hard wheat semolina, a powdered starch, pulverized sugar, skim milk powder and a spray-dried fat emulsion, the ingredients and their proportions being selected so that the composition when mixing with boiling water and quickly stirred produces a creamy, grainy and thick textured semolina-like hot pudding. The composition allows the quick and convenient production of a ready-to-serve hot semolina pudding from the dry mix of the ingredients, with the textural and creamy taste characteristics of a conventional semolina pudding.
