Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups whole milk
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter
- 0.25 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- whipped cream or fresh mint (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, whisk together the milk, cornstarch, turmeric powder, and granulated sugar until the cornstarch is fully dissolved and the mixture is smooth.
Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture begins to thicken. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes, stirring continuously to ensure the pudding remains smooth and doesn’t stick to the bottom of the pan.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and whisk in the honey, vanilla extract, and butter until fully incorporated. The pudding should be creamy and golden in color.
Pour the pudding into serving dishes. Allow it to cool slightly at room temperature, then cover with plastic wrap (pressing it onto the surface of the pudding to prevent a skin from forming) and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until fully chilled.
Before serving, sprinkle a light dusting of ground cinnamon over the top for added warmth and flavor. Optionally, top with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprig of fresh mint for garnish.
Serve chilled and enjoy your luxurious Golden Pudding!
