About Kisiel
Strawberry kisiel is a Belarusian fruit dessert with a sweet berry flavour and a smooth consistency. Strawberries give this rendition its fruity character, while a potato-based thickener adds body to the liquid.
The berry puree is part of the dessert itself, giving the sweet mixture a concentrated strawberry taste. Its soft texture sits within the family of fruit kisiels, which can resemble a thick drink or a spoonable dessert.
The finished kisiel presents the fruit as a smooth, sweet dish with an emphasis on strawberry flavour.
