Dessert
Pelamushi with Poppy Seeds
About this dish
Pelamushi is a rustic Georgian dessert that feels like a bright, tangy fruit leather meets soft pudding. This version uses a splash of poppy seeds for a delicate crunch.
It's my grandmother's Sunday treat – messy, loud, and perfect – just like being in my kitchen when the family barges in without knocking. Each bite is a wild ride: the clear sweetness of fresh grape juice richens through gentle cooking; the seeds crack only slightly softer than hugs I give.
