    Put the flour and sugar in a bowl. Gradually add up to 500 ml of the grape must and mix until smooth. Pour the remaining must into a pot and gradually add the flour mixture, stirring well.

  2. 02

    Cook until thick

    Heat the mixture in the pot, stirring continuously. Once it boils, lower the heat and keep stirring for 8–10 minutes, until thickened. Check that it no longer tastes of raw flour.
