    **VANILLA RECIPE, ONE PORTION**
    1 cup (237mL) milk or milk substitute
    1 tablespoon + 1-2 teaspoons cornstarch, depending on how thick you like it
    2-3 tablespoons sugar, depending on how sweet you like it
    small pinch of salt
    splash of vanilla extract (I used the beans from half a pod in the vid)
    1/2 teaspoon butter or other fat (optional)
    Combine the starch, sugar and salt and stir thoroughly to combine. Put the milk in a pot, whisk in the dry ingredients, bring to a simmer until the liquid visibly thickens. Turn off the heat, stir in the vanilla, melt in the butter (if using), pour in a serving bowl, let cool until it stops steaming, cover if you want to prevent a skin from forming, refrigerate for a few hours until wobbly.
    **COFFEE RECIPE, ONE PORTION**
    1 cup (237mL) coffee (I brewed mine with milk instead of water)
    1 tablespoon + 1-2 teaspoons cornstarch, depending on how thick you like it
    2-3 tablespoons sugar, depending on how sweet you like it
    small pinch of salt
    1/2 teaspoon butter or other fat (optional)

Turn off the heat, melt in the butter (if using), pour in a serving bowl, let cool until it stops steaming, cover if you want to prevent a skin from forming, refrigerate for a few hours until wobbly.
    **CHOCOLATE RECIPE, ONE PORTION**
    1 cup (237mL) milk, milk substitute or water
    1 tablespoon + 0-1 teaspoons cornstarch, depending on how thick you like it
    2-3 tablespoons sugar, depending on how sweet you like it
    2 tablespoons cocoa powder
    small pinch of salt
    a little square of solid chocolate, or a few chocolate chips (optional)
    Combine the starch, sugar and salt and stir thoroughly to combine. Put the milk in a pot, whisk in the dry ingredients, bring to a simmer until the liquid visibly thickens. Turn off the heat, stir in the vanilla, melt in the solid chocolate (if using), pour in a serving bowl, let cool until it stops steaming, cover if you want to prevent a skin from forming, refrigerate for a few hours until wobbly.
    **STRAWBERRY RECIPE, ONE PORTION**
    1/2 lb (227g) fresh strawberries
    1 tablespoon + 0-1 teaspoons cornstarch, depending on how thick you like it
    2-3 tablespoons sugar, depending on how sweet you like it
    small pinch of salt
    a little milk
    Cut the tops off the strawberries, cut them in half, put them in a pot with a splash of water, boil until soft. (They'll release their own water as soon as they get cooking, so the initial splash is just enough to get them started without burning on the bottom of the pot.) Pass the strawberries and their liquid through a sieve into a heat-safe bowl and grind down the solids with a wooden spoon to extract as much liquid as possible. Discard the solids.
    You should have just under one cup (237mL) of strawberry juice. Top it off with enough milk to get you a full cup. The milk will curdle and that's ok - strain the liquid through the sieve one more time on its way back into the pot.
    Combine the starch, sugar and salt and stir thoroughly to combine. Whisk in the dry ingredients into the strawberry liquid, bring to a simmer until the liquid visibly thickens. Turn off the heat, pour in a serving bowl, let cool until it stops steaming, cover if you want to prevent a skin from forming, refrigerate for a few hours until wobbly.

    Friends, I see some confusion in the comments from viewers outside the U.S., and it's confusion that I should have anticipated and addressed in my script. Jell-O is a company that makes gelatin-based desserts that we would colloquially call "jello." However, the Jell-O company also makes starch-based desserts of the type you see in this video, which we'd call "pudding" here in the States. I imagine it's especially confusing to people in the rest of the Anglosphere who refer to any kind of a dessert as a pudding, in which case Jell-O gelatin could be referred to as a pudding, because it's a dessert. But in the U.S., people use "pudding" almost exclusively in reference to starch-thickened desserts of the kind you see here, which are typified by the mass-produced versions sold by the Jell-O company. I think I may have just written the first paragraph of next Thursday's vid...

    Man the fruit one is called Kisiel in polish and that was the shit as a kid. Also, my mom and grandma would make a thick, sour cherry soup that was half way between kisiel and kompot. Served with fresh egg pasta. Weird af but equally delicious.
    Edit: realized that some might understand kompot as "compote" which looks to me like juice and fruits thickened with starch.

    Something I've been using for pudding is sweetened condensed milk. Warm it up just a little in a microwave, stir in the starch or custard powder, then pour in boiling water while whisking. The condensed milk and starch should thinken up almost instantly. This method tends to be faster, especially if you have a water boiler, and removes the need to boil the mixture in a pan so you don't risk burning the pudding.
    If the condensed milk was too cold before pouring in the water, the starch may not get fully cooked and the pudding will be a little mealy. If this happens, you can put it in the microwave for a few seconds and that should take care of that.

    "Pudding" originally referred to a flour mixture, often with currents / raisins / dried fruits that was put into a dampened and floured bag, then boiled for a couple hours (depending on the thickness of the ball). Sometimes it would have suet or tallow or lard to create pockets for a "fluffier" texture...and at some point someone put meat into it, and then instead of using a cloth bag, used intestines for casings...but they still boiled it to cook & solidify the contents, hence blood sausage being considered a "pudding"--aka a dough or batter in a cloth or other container that is then boiled or steamed...which is why haggis is also a pudding, as it's grains & bits of meat in a casing (stomach) that is boiled or steamed. Modern dessert puddings are boiled in pots and then served in dishes rather than using cloths, etc, OR their starches are pre-treated to act like they've already been boiled, in the case of instant puddings.

    For even more vanilla flavor, toss the bean halves into the pudding mixture as well and fish them out when it's done boiling. Then you can rinse them off, dry them out and grind them down with sugar and use the resulting vanilla sugar for future puddings!

    My Cajun grandmother used to make pudding from scratch all the time. Her butterscotch pudding was heavenly, and I wouldn’t eat that nasty Jello stuff because it didn’t taste anywhere near as good as Grandmama’s pudding. I’d watch her make it but my four-year-old brain didn’t know what she was putting in it other than milk and sugar. It was magic how it went from liquid to pudding so quickly.
    I’ve never been able to replicate that butterscotch flavor, either. I can replicate her savory pudding (it has a bit of mustard and vinegar in it) to use for making her banana salad, but that was the only of her pudding recipes she ever wrote down and she’s been gone for well over 30 years now. That banana salad was my favorite part of Thanksgiving! A sweet but slightly vinegary pudding full of sliced bananas and topped with chopped peanuts. It sounds so bizarre but it is so incredibly delicious. The only difference with it is that it is thickened with an egg and a bit of flour - because every great Louisiana dish has to start with a roux, right?

    Hey Adam. If you like the texture of the skin layer and want it throughout the pudding's body, consider replacing starch with arrowroot powder. That works for me with chilled chocolate pudding and arrowroot has a lower glycemic index if that matters to you

I made the chocolate version with Dutch cocoa. I should've used more sugar because it's a tiny bit too bitter for my taste but it still turned out really good. The only chocolate squares I had were slightly raspberry flavored so it gave the pudding a hint of fruity flavor which I highly recommend!

    As a Brit, when someone says "pudding" and means a class of desserts, my understanding is angel delight, a weird powder from the 70s (and revived in the 00's) that was mixed with milk to make something a little firmer than these puddings. I've only had it while camping with my not-scouts group; I imagine it did a lot of heavy lifting for low-effort pudding catering at scale.

    Just made this "recipe"
    Was gonna make the vanilla version, but realized I only have soy milk. Didn't want to risk boiling soy milk because it becomes really gross. Used an instand hot coco packet, but it was meant for 3/4 of cup so I only used 2 teaspoons of cornstarch. the powder was sticking to the cup I mixed it in so I added a little water to salvage the remaining powder. While I looked away the mixture had already gelatinized so I quickly poured in the slurry, mixed it, poured it in the cup, and threw it in the fridge.
    I will give an update in a few hours when I actually eat it.

    We use potato starch instead of cornstarch and usually do not add butter. And made with water instead of milk it's kisiel.

    From a Polish person here, when we make pudding, (it's called Budyń) we use like a 1/3 of the milk to mix with the starch and sugar, and after we heat up the rest of the milk until it's boiling we add the milk-starch mixture and mix quickly. It comes out really smooth and sillky 😋

He tends to pull it out to point out which specific meaning he is using on a given day.
    My only real question is why North America (and other places) calls only "a thing that is or basically is custard" pudding. I don't remember even seeing the word custard in use in NA until I was in my 20s minimum (aside from a canister of Bird's custard powder we tended to have at home growing up).
