PUDDING
THE RECIPE OF IGINIO MASSARI
TOOLKITS
MIXING BOWL, EGG SEPARATOR, WHISK, GRADUATED PITCHER, BAIN-MARIE,
RINGS SET, SILICONE BRUSH
Ingredients
500 g milk
100 g sugar
1 vanilla bean
80 g egg yolks (4 yolks)
40 g corn starch
25 g water
5 g jelly sheets
Method
Pour the milk in a saucepan, add the vanilla bean and bring to
boil. Filter the liquid through a strainer in the bain-marie over
the egg yolks previously blended with corn starch and sugar and
keep stirring constantly. Proceed with cooking until the pudding
begins to thicken. Squeeze the jelly sheets previously softened in
cold water, stir them in and mix well. Place the pudding in the
molds or into an internally buttered ring dusted with sugar. Pour
the pudding, then place some dry biscuits that will become the
cake base when chilled. Place the pudding in the fridge to chill
at least for 4-6 hours in order to make it tougher. When time
comes for removal, press slightly on the bottom of the molds and
flip them directly over the dishes. To decorate the pudding, use
fresh fruit and flocks of whipped cream or biscuits in cold
weather.
