Tips:

  • Use the right amount of cornstarch. Too much cornstarch will make your pudding thick and gluey, while too little will make it thin and runny. A good rule of thumb is to use 1 tablespoon of cornstarch for every cup of milk.
  • Make sure your cornstarch is dissolved before adding it to the milk. If you don't, you'll end up with lumps in your pudding. The best way to dissolve cornstarch is to whisk it together with a small amount of cold milk until it forms a smooth paste.
  • Bring the milk and sugar to a boil before adding the cornstarch. This will help to thicken the pudding quickly and evenly.
  • Stir the pudding constantly while it's cooking. This will help to prevent it from scorching on the bottom of the pan.
  • Remove the pudding from the heat as soon as it reaches the desired consistency. If you cook it for too long, it will become thick and rubbery.
  • Chill the pudding for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow it to set properly and develop its full flavor.
