Preparation

Step 1

Puree raspberries with their juices in a food processor, then force though a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, discarding solids.

Sprinkle gelatin over pomegranate juice in a medium saucepan and let stand 1 minute to soften. Cook over low heat, stirring, until gelatin has dissolved.

Stir in lingonberry sauce and sugar. Cook, stirring, until sugar has dissolved and sauce has melted. Stir into berry puree

Quick-chill in an ice bath, stirring occasionally, until mixture begins to mound, about 30 minutes.

Pour into dishes or glasses and chill until set, at least 3 hours.

COOKS NOTE: Puddings can be chilled up to 3 days.
