Rootin pudding recipe

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine water, milk, sugar, and cinnamon. Bring to a boil and remove from heat. Remove cinnamon stick.

In another saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Allow it to bubble, but not to brown. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the semolina, a little at a time until the mixture is thick and smooth. Allow it to brown slightly, then stir in the milk mixture, a little at a time. Continue to stir until the mixture has progressed from creamy to thick.

Place pudding in a gelatin mold or glass dish. Serve warm or cold.
