aulait - One reviewer said they used flour with satisfactory results. I also googled 'agar pudding recipe' and came up with a lot of options.

I have made this recipe a number of times and it tastes great! My only problem is that is turns soupy upon cooling/refrigeration. I am following the recipe exactly but am having the same result. What can I do to maintain the thickness so it can be eaten the next day?

am not fond of adding Cornstarch.Any Solutions for me?Thank You:-)

This recipe is so simple and yet so delicious. Very creamy, rich, and chocolatey (when you make the chocolate version, of course). The vanilla would be great over cake with blueberries or strawberries or as a tart filling, too.

I made a lower fat version. I used skim milk and omitted the butter. It set and came out great.

This came out great. You can make it a little lower in fat too. I used skim milk and omit the butter. Still set and came out great

I made the chocolate pudding and it was wonderful and very easy to make!

to tryingsomethingnew: In most of Europe you should be able to find cornstarch. In the UK it is cornflour; in France, fn n cule de man n s. Maizena is a common brand throughout Europe.

i like the chocolate more than vanilla. but both are good.

Excellent recipe! I live in Europe, and I couldn't find corn starch, but I used flour instead.

To CE Clark, you can use the egg white for coating chicken pieces for frying. Try it, I always do that when I fry chicken. Beat the egg white for few seconds, dip the chicken into the egg white, then dredge the chicken in the seasoning flour or breadcrumb for frying. Yummy.

What do you do with the egg whites?

I just made the chocolate pudding and must say that is was very easy and very delicious.

My, I cannot what to make pudding for my grandchildren like my mother use to make for me when I was small!

I fixed the chocolate pudding for dessert last night - I have been llooking for a good recipe for "homemade" pudding that was at least as good as the boxed kind. And, boy, did this fill that request. This was (note the "was") delicious. I had to add a bit more milk for consistency (maybe I put in too much corn starch????). I'll never buy boxed again. I'm going to try to vanilla this weekend.

Yesterday afternoon I made the chocolate pudding; quick and easy. My two little girls loved having warm pudding with whipped cream after school! My teenage son recognized that it didn't taste like the usual "sugar free box stuff" and finished the bowl (and the bowl of whipped cream) after dinner. A big hit! Evidently warm pudding can make a day spent with a "mean" substitute teacher seem like a distant memory!

I've made pudding from scratch and I really don't think it's any better than the boxed kind. If I'm going to the trouble, I'd rathe make custard.

Easy to make, directions are clean and concise, both the vanilla or the chocolate are equally tasty. Wonderful in Cream Puffs. Excellent dessert with whipped coconut cream as a topping.
