Pelamushi is a delightful traditional Georgian dessert made from grape juice and flour.

This sweet treat has been enjoyed in Georgia for generations, often prepared during the grape harvest season.

To make Pelamushi, you start by mixing grape juice, cornmeal, and sugar in a pot. The mixture is then cooked until it thickens, and poured into molds to set.

While the classic recipe is simple and delicious, you can customize Pelamushi by adding chopped walnuts or other nuts for extra texture and flavor.

In Georgia, Pelamushi is typically served chilled, making it a refreshing dessert, especially during the warmer months.

From a nutritional standpoint, Pelamushi is relatively low in fat but can be high in sugar, so it's best enjoyed in moderation.
