New England Summer Pudding

I am always surprised that this dessert never became as popular in America as in England. It is a natural any time you have lots of summer berries. But we did make it a lot in New England. And since it must rest overnight before serving, it is a perfect dessert for entertaining.

Use whatever mixed berries you can find, but the berries must be sieved. Regardless of what other recipes may say, the texture will be ruined if the seeds are left in and some berries left whole.
