Misokofti is a sweet delicacy hailing from the island of Symi. It is a type of moustalevria , a traditional Greek pudding-like dessert that’s made with a combination of ripe fragosika (prickly pear) pulp, niseste (cornstarch), and sugar. The mixture is boiled until it thickens and obtains a creamy, pudding-like consistency, and it is often flavored with ground cloves. This creamy dessert is best enjoyed well-chilled, and it is usually served sprinkled with cinnamon and nuts (usually walnuts, almonds, or pistachios) on top and accompanied by a cup of Greek coffee on the side. Prickly pears are abundant on Symi Island and are often eaten fresh or made into various sweet specialties by the local women.
