Rhubarb Kissel

Kissel is found in many Eastern European cuisines, most typically in the form of a thick, starchy, fruit-flavoured dessert. In Lithuania I have enjoyed it thinned down to the consistency of a drink similar to a nectar. A cranberry variation is a particular favourite during the Christmas season, and is often served warm. While any tart berries can be used to make this, personally I love it thin, made with rhubarb and drunk cold at the height of summer.

For those who are familiar with the Christmas chapter in my second book, the core of this recipe will be pleasantly familiar! I see each Christmas as another opportunity to get creative with flavours and decoration of all our traditional favourites and festive classics, which is exactly what I’ve done here.
