In preparation for partying the inauguration tomorrow, I have dutifully stirred two batches of chocolate pudding- one with cow milk and another with hazelnut milk. I will be making Obamanana pudding for Brook's party tomorrow. Just yesterday I broke through the pudding barrier- all this time I had a block in my mind about double boilers and hours of laborious stirring. Actually the magic is corn starch- I previously believed corn starch was a non-food to be strenuously avoided in life in the category of nitrites and MSG. Not so my friend. Not so.
My easy recipe from the Moosewood is just stirring 1/3 cocoa, 1/3 sugar/ 3 TB cornstarch and 2 cups milk for 10 minutes over medium heat. I found another recipe for butterscotch tapioca pudding which I am saving to treat myself for Wednesday.
