CLASSIC TAPIOCA PUDDING

Steps:

• Stir together the milk, tapioca, sugar, and salt in a medium saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low; cook and stir 5 minutes longer.
• Whisk 1 cup of the hot milk mixture into the beaten eggs, 2 tablespoons at a time until incorporated. Stir the egg mixture back into the tapioca until well mixed. Bring the pudding to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat; cook and stir 2 minutes longer until the pudding becomes thick enough to evenly coat the back of a metal spoon. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla. The pudding may be served hot or poured into serving dishes and refrigerated several hours until cold.

TAPIOCA PUDDING

Steps:

• Place tapioca in a medium mixing bowl along with the water, cover, and let stand overnight.
• Drain water from tapioca. Place the tapioca into a slow cooker along with the milk, heavy cream, and salt. Cook on high for 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and sugar. Temper small amounts of the tapioca into the egg mixture until you have added at least 1 cup. Then add this back into the remaining tapioca in the slow cooker. Add the lemon zest and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 15 minutes, stirring at least once. Transfer the pudding to a bowl and cover the surface with plastic wrap. Allow to cool at room temperature for 1 hour and then place in the refrigerator until thoroughly chilled.

TAPIOCA PEARL PUDDING

Steps:

• Whisk milk, cream, milk powder, and salt in a medium saucepan; add tapioca and let sit 30 minutes to hydrate. Add sugar to tapioca mixture and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
• Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring often, until the consistency of a thick soup, 10-12 minutes. Whisk in egg yolk and cook, stirring occasionally, 2 minutes (it will thicken slightly). Let cool, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes.
• Divide among small glasses. Chill pudding until cold (it will thicken), at least 2 hours. Serve topped with nutmeg.
• Do ahead: Pudding can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and keep chilled.

TAPIOCA PUDDING

Steps:

• Cook the tapioca: Combine tapioca, milk, and salt in 1 1/2 quart pan on medium-high heat. Stir while bringing to a bare simmer. Lower the heat and cook, uncovered, at the lowest possible heat, adding sugar gradually until the tapioca pearls have plumped up and thickened. Depending on the type or brand of tapioca you are using (and if you've pre-soaked the tapioca as some brands call for), this could take anywhere from 5 minutes to 45 minutes of cooking at a very low temperature. Stir occasionally so the tapioca doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan.
• Temper the eggs with a little hot tapioca: Beat eggs in a separate bowl. Whisk in some of the hot tapioca very slowly to equalize the temperature of the two (to avoid curdling).
• Add the tempered eggs to the pudding, cool, then add the vanilla: Slowly add the eggs to the tapioca in the pan. Increase the heat to medium and stir for several minutes until you get a thick pudding consistency. Do not let the mixture boil or the tapioca egg custard will curdle. Cool 15 minutes. Stir in vanilla. Serve either warm or chilled.

SLOW COOKER TAPIOCA PUDDING

Steps:

• Stir together the milk, sugar, tapioca, and eggs in a slow cooker. Cover, and cook on Medium for 3 hours, or on Low for 6 hours, stirring occasionally. Serve warm.

LARGE PEARL TAPIOCA PUDDING (AKA EYEBALL PUDDING)

Steps:

• Bring milk to a boil in a double boiler over simmering water.
• Add salt and tapioca to milk.
• Stirring constantly, cook tapioca in double boiler for 1 hour or until tapioca is clear and milk is thickened.
• Beat egg whites with 1/2 cup sugar until firm peaks, set aside.
• Beat yolks with remaining 1/2 cup sugar.
• Temper yolks with some of the hot custard.
• Stir tempered yolks into hot custard, cook over double boiler an additional 15 minutes.
• Stir in vanilla.
• Remove from heat and gently fold in egg whites.
• Pour tapioca into a serving bowl, cover and chill.

SAGO PUDDING

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the tapioca pearls with coconut milk and coconut cream and let it sit for 30 minutes, for the pearls to thicken.
• Transfer the mixture into a small saucepan. Add the granulated sweetener and place it over medium heat. Once it begins to simmer, reduce it to low and gently stir it for 10-15 minutes, before removing from the heat. Whisk in the vanilla extract.
• Distribute the pudding mixture amongst eight small glasses and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
• Before serving, blend your mango and spread over the top of each pudding.

EASY HOMEMADE TAPIOCA PUDDING

Steps:

• Place the water and tapioca pearls in a 1 1/2 quart pot. Let stand for 30 minutes until the pearls are plump and have absorbed the water.
• Turn on the heat to medium-high. Pour in the milk and salt; stir while bringing to a bare simmer.
• Reduce the heat to very low, add in the sugar and cook, uncovered, stirring frequently (so the tapioca doesn't stick to the bottom of the pan), until the tapioca pearls have plumped and thickened, about 5 minutes.
• In a separate bowl, beat the eggs. Slowly whisk in about 1/2 cup of the hot tapioca (this equalizes the temperature between the two mixtures to avoid curdling.)
• Pour the egg mixture into the pot with the rest of the tapioca; increase heat to medium and stir for several minutes until you get a thick pudding consistency that coats the back of a wooden spoon. (Do not let mixture boil.)
• Take off the heat and cool for 15 minutes.
• Stir in the vanilla.
• Serve either warm or cold and enjoy!

TAPIOCA PUDDING RECIPE

Steps:

• Cook the tapioca in the milk and salt on medium heat until simmering. Then lower the heat to a minimum and start adding sugar gradually and intermittently until the tapioca pearls have increased in size.
• Break the eggs into a heatproof bowl. Temper the eggs by taking some of the hot tapioca mixture and adding it to the eggs while whisking constantly. Drizzle the tempered eggs into the tapioca mixture while on low heat until thickened. It should not boil.
• Let your tapioca pudding cool until room temperature. Add vanilla and stir. You may choose to heat it up to serve warm, or refrigerate in individual serving dishes and serve cold.

PEARL TAPIOCA

Steps:

• 1. Soak the pearls in water overnight, covered well with water. Drain the water off. Heat the milk, cream, vanilla bean (split and scraped) or vanilla, and tapioca to a slow simmer in a heavy pot and cook for 1 hour, stirring often. Add the sugar and salt. Bring to a simmer being careful not to let the tapioca stick to the bottom of the pan.
• 2. Put the yolks into a bowl and slowly stir in a small amount of the tapioca mixture to temper the eggs. Add abit more of the hot mixture to the egg mixture. Stir well. Then add yolks to the pan while stirring. Pour into a bowl and cool. You can serve it warm (as I hear it is often served in the colder months) but we like ours after it has chilled several hours in the fridge at any time of year.
