3 Coliva Ingredients: • 1 kg unshelled corn • 1 salt spoon • 1 peel of lemon • 3 l water • 750 g sugar • 500 g crushed nut • rum essence • vanilla essence • 200 g popular biscuits • powdered sugar For this coliva the corn must be chosen and washed in 7 ”waters”. Then it will be boiled with 3 liters of water and some clean peel of the lemon. When the corn is almost boiled (it make a white spume) we put the sugar slowly, then we will mix and we let boil until the sugar is melted . It must be mixed once in a while, because it is possible to stick on the bottom of the mug. When is finished, we take it off the fire, and we put it on the mug a top and take it to the fridge. After that we add some salt, rum essence and vanilla essence, nut and we will mix by hand. We put this blend in a circle or rectangular dish. Coliva is dressed with bread crumbs, which are made of that 200 g of biscuits and powdered sugar. Bon appetite! Less
