Instructions

  1. Clean the fruit and chop rhubarb into 1-inch pieces if using, then place all fruit in a nonreactive saucepan with 3 cups water.

  2. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the fruit softens and falls apart.

  3. Strain the cooked fruit mixture, discard the berry seeds, and return the juice to the saucepan.

  4. Stir sugar into the juice and bring it to a low boil.

  5. Reduce heat to medium, add the dissolved potato flour or cornstarch liquid, and stir constantly until the mixture thickens to a heavy syrup.

  6. Pour the pudding into individual serving bowls, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

  7. Serve chilled with plain or vanilla-sweetened whipped cream.
