Ingredients
Pudding Base
Toppings (optional)
Preparing the Pudding
1. Soak the Tapioca
In a medium bowl, soak the tapioca pearls in water for about 30 minutes to 1 hour. This will help soften them before cooking.
2. Combine Ingredients
In a saucepan, combine the soaked tapioca (drained), milk, sugar, and salt. Stir well to combine.
3. Cook the Mixture
Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook the mixture, stirring frequently until it comes to a gentle boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and continue to cook for about 10-15 minutes until the tapioca pearls become transparent.
4. Add Eggs and Vanilla
In a separate bowl, whisk the eggs lightly. Slowly add about 1/2 cup of the hot tapioca mixture to the eggs, whisking constantly to temper them. Then pour the egg mixture back into the saucepan and stir in the vanilla extract.
5. Final Cooking
Continue to cook the pudding for an additional 5 minutes, stirring constantly until it thickens to your desired consistency.
6. Cool and Serve
Remove the pudding from heat and let it cool slightly. You can serve it warm or refrigerate it to serve it chilled.
Adding Toppings
7. Garnish the Pudding
If desired, garnish your tapioca pudding with a sprinkle of cinnamon, fresh fruit, or a dollop of whipped cream before serving.
