Milk pudding is a fresh, delicate spoonable dessert with a creamy consistency, perfect for serving as a happy ending to a meal at a dinner with guests, or to offer children at snack time for a healthy and genuine rest. It is an easy and quick recipe, without butter, eggs or flour, also ideal for those who follow a gluten-free diet or for those who want to treat themselves without too much guilt.
To bring it to the table, simply gently melt the cornstarch and granulated sugar in a heavy-bottomed saucepan with half the recipe’s dose of milk. At this point, pour in the rest of the milk, along with a teaspoon of vanilla essence, and continue cooking over low heat, stirring often with a wooden spoon, until a thick, velvety cream is obtained to distribute in individual bowls. and then harden in the fridge, for at least a couple of hours, before being eaten by the spoonful.
In our version, we garnish the pudding with raspberries and blueberries, for a nice contrast of flavors between the sweetness of the heavy cream and the slightly sour taste of the berries. But, if you prefer, you can enjoy it alone or you can complete the preparation with a salted caramel coating or whatever you prefer: strawberry coulis, dark chocolate flakes, pistachio paste, chopped hazelnuts, colored sugar granitas, fruit salad fresh , dry crumbled biscuits…
Those who wish can flavor everything with lemon or orange zest, while the most sinful can add bitter cocoa powder or a drop of rum to the rest of the ingredients. Alternatively, in case of food intolerances, you can opt for lactose-free milk or, if there are vegans among the diners, you can opt for an almond or coconut vegetable drink instead of cow’s milk.
