Ingredients
Instructions
- Boil the milk and water; sprinkle in the washed sago and cook thoroughly.
- Add the sugar and continue cooking until dissolved.
- Allow to cool slightly, then beat in the raspberry jam and lemon juice.
- Add a little red colouring matter if liked.
- Serve alone or with fruit.
Tips & Substitutions
To ensure the sago cooks evenly, rinse it thoroughly before adding it to the boiling milk and water. If you don't have raspberry jam, you can substitute it with any other berry jam or puree for a different flavor. For added richness, consider using whole milk instead of low-fat. This recipe can be customized with different fruit flavors or colors, similar to how you might use for Danish Apple Struedel.
Serving Suggestions
Raspberry Snow is delightful when served chilled, either on its own or alongside fresh fruits like berries or sliced peaches. Consider pairing it with a dollop of whipped cream for added indulgence. It also works well as a light dessert after a hearty meal, or alongside a cup of tea, making it a versatile treat.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When reheating, gently warm the Raspberry Snow on the stove over low heat, adding a splash of milk to restore its creamy texture. Avoid boiling it again to prevent the sago from becoming overly gummy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use other types of fruit jam in this recipe?
Yes, you can substitute raspberry jam with other fruit jams or purees, like strawberry or blueberry, to create a different flavor profile. Each variation will provide a unique twist to the dish while still maintaining its creamy texture.
Is it necessary to add coloring to the Raspberry Snow?
Adding color is optional and purely for aesthetic purposes. If you prefer a more natural look, feel free to skip the coloring. The beautiful pink hue from the raspberry jam should provide enough visual appeal on its own.
Can I make this recipe dairy-free?
Absolutely! You can replace the milk with any plant-based milk, such as almond, coconut, or oat milk. Just ensure that the dairy alternative you choose is unsweetened to maintain the balance of flavors in the dish.
