For chilled pudding, place plastic wrap on the surface of the hot pudding, to avoid a skin forming, and refrigerate for about 1 hour. You can easily bring this pudding back to its original consistency by using the microwave to heat it up. Also, if you chill the rice pudding in the fridge, it will thicken as it sets. If you choose to leave it out, simply make sure to keep the pudding over the burner until it has reached the desired thickness. Using the egg gives this dish more of a custard-like consistency. Use a vegan instant pudding mix, as well and cut out the egg, if you’re avoiding animal products. Make this dish dairy-free and vegan by replacing the milk with your favorite plant-based beverage, such as almond milk or canned coconut milk.

As the days go on, the pudding might release some moisture. Pudding is best eaten with one to two days after it has been made.If you don’t plan to make individual portions, place it in the container you plan to serve it in. If you are serving it individually go ahead and place directly in the serving bowls. If you are using it to make a pie, make sure to put it directly into the prepared pie crust you will be using. Strain the pudding to get rid of any small bits of cooked eggs you might have.Also, it’s especially important to stir almost constantly in the beginning when you are cooking it to ensure no egg yolks get stuck to the bottom of the pot and scramble. It takes no more than 10 minutes to cook.

I swap between using them while I’m cooking the pudding to make sure I’m getting all the mixture out of the crevices of the pot while whisking to ensure a consistent cook. I use both to make sure the the mixture cooks evenly.

It’s made using common kitchen ingredients, takes only about 15 minutes to put together and is ridiculously good. Homemade Vanilla Pudding is pure comfort food.
