how to make pudding paragraph
Answers
Explanation:
Ingredients
1/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups whole milk
3 large egg yolks
1 dark chocolate candy bar (6.8 ounces), finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon flavored extract. We like vanilla, but you can experiment with flavors like almond, orange or mint.
Tools
Large saucepan (Like this one from Taste of Home’s new line of cookware.)
Flat whisk (standard is fine, too)
Small bowl
Plastic wrap
Step 1: Combine the first three ingredients
Step 2: Add the milk and gently cook

At this point, were going to challenge you to multitask. Slowly pour the milk into the pan while gently whisking the ingredients. Whisk until the mixture reaches a smooth consistency. Then, dial up the burner to medium heat. Make sure to stir the pot continuously until the liquid has started to thicken and bubble. Don’t be tempted to leave it unattended-your pudding might scorch!
Test Kitchen Tip: If you’re a utensil connoisseur like me, a flat whisk is a great tool to reach into the corners of your sauce pan. This extra reach will make sure you whisk every bit of milk.
Step 3: Lower heat and stir
Once the pudding has started to bubble, reduce the heat to low. Continue gently stirring for 2 minutes longer, then remove from heat.
Step 4: Carefully add the egg yolks

Combine the egg yolks with a small portion of the hot custard mixture in a small bowl and give it a whisk to combine. This brings the eggs up to a higher temperature, so they’ll mix into the pudding more smoothly, without curdling. Pour the milky yolk mix into the saucepan. Whisk again to combine.
Step 5: Heat things up again
Bring the saucepan, yet again, to a gentle boil. Continue to cook and stir for 2 minutes.
