Moustalevria

moustalevria (Greek: μουσταλευριά, pronounced moo-stah-lev-ree-AH) or moustopita (μουστόπιτα, moo-stOH-pee-tah) is a sort of pudding made of grape must mixed with flour and boiled until thick. It may also include almonds, walnuts, and other nuts.

Grape must is the juice from pressed grapes before fermentation, and is often used as a sweetener in traditional bread recipes, as well as in the preparation of desserts and candy. This grape must pie is a favorite, especially popular at grape harvest season when the must is fresh.
