Notes
- You can always add more flavor by making pudding from scratch or using a box mix. You only need a teaspoon of vanilla extract to make any pudding taste luxurious. You can add your preferred liquor to the mix as well. Adding a bit of your favorite liquor to your standard pudding recipe can completely transform it.
- To achieve a homemade flavor when using a boxed mix that calls for milk, try using evaporated milk or canned coconut milk instead. The pudding will attain a new level of silkiness with these changes.
- If you're making something as traditional as pudding, you might be tempted to use a wooden spoon. By whisking the ingredients, you will keep any clumps from forming. The last thing you want in a smooth pudding is to find a lump of flour or cornstarch.
- Once the pudding has set and is chilling in the fridge, you can stop stirring. Don't even stir it up before putting it in dessert dishes. Going the pudding more after it's done will break up the thick texture you worked so hard to make.
