VANILLA TAPIOCA PUDDING



Vanilla Tapioca Pudding image

This creamy pudding seems much richer than it actually is. I prefer making it with low-fat (2%) or whole milk, but it is very good using fat free. Substituting unsweetened coconut milk for a cup of the milk makes an interesting variation. Note that smaller pearls will cook faster than larger ones so the cooking times will vary. Responding to Mianbao, I found that small pearls require more milk, say an extra cup during cooking. The mixture should be similar to oatmeal cooking. Keys to success are maintaining a very low heat, stirring often and cooking until the pearls are completely translucent--no white spots in the center! (Prep time assumes you already soaked the pearls and NOTE: This recipe doesn't work with "minute" tapioca).

Time 50m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3/4 cup pearl tapioca
2 cups cold water
4 cups milk
2/3 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Soak tapioca in cold water overnight or for at least 3 hours.
  • Heat milk until it is steaming, not boiling.
  • Drain excess water from tapioca and add to the hot milk, stirring constantly and scraping the bottom with a wide flat utensil until it is steaming again--do not boil.
  • Immediately reduce heat to very low, lower than the setting for cooking white rice, just hot enough to see a few vapors.
  • Stir often the first few minutes then add the sugar and salt; and additional milk if needed.
  • Check and stir the bottom of the mixture about every 5 minutes and add milk as needed to maintain a consistency similar to oatmeal cooking.
  • Cook for about 45 minutes or until the tapioca pearls are translucent (no white specks in the center) and the mixture is sufficiently thickened.
  • (Notes: One may thicken the hot sweetened milk and tapioca in a double boiler although a heavy saucepan is fine if given careful attention--this pudding will scorch easily if you're distracted! Should problems appear, immediately transfer to another pan; avoid and discard anything caramel or brown colored).
  • When thickened and the pearls are translucent, stir in vanilla and transfer to a bowl or individual pudding cups.
  • Cover and chill--serve with whipped cream and cinnamon or fruit.
  • (Note: The pudding will thicken more as it chills).

CREAMY VANILLA TAPIOCA PUDDING



Creamy Vanilla Tapioca Pudding image

This pudding is lighter and less sweet than most, but it has a wonderful creamy vanilla flavor. If it is left to set in the fridge it will solidify and have a thick texture, but my favorite way to eat it is warm straight from the pot. The preparation time does not include soaking the pearls and pre-soaked pearls are available if you wish to avoid this step.

SLOW COOKER VANILLA TAPIOCA PUDDING RECIPE - (4.7/5)



Slow Cooker Vanilla Tapioca Pudding Recipe - (4.7/5) image

Provided by Kathy_Hester

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 cup small tapioca pearls
8 cups unsweetened non-dairy milk (plain or vanilla)
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 cup sugar (or your favorite sweetener to taste, it will probably need less than 1 cup of agave nectar for instance)

Steps:

  • In a 4 quart slow cooker add the tapioca, non-dairy milk and vanilla and cook on high for 2 hours. When the pudding's time is up it will appear very soupy. Don't let this worry you, it will set up a bit as it cools and even more once you put it in the fridge. Stir in the sugar and refrigerate for a few hours. I like to make this the night before so all I have to do is dish it out after dinner.

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 (14 ounce) can unsweetened coconut milk
1 vanilla bean, split
2 1/2 cups milk
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup quick-cooking tapioca
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 large eggs

Steps:

  • Put the can of coconut milk in the refrigerator until well chilled, about 30 minutes. In a medium saucepan, cook the vanilla bean in the milk over moderate heat, stirring, until hot, about 5 minutes. Stir in the sugar, tapioca and salt. Cover and remove from the heat. Let stand for 5 minutes. Uncover and bring to a boil over moderate heat, stirring frequently.
  • Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk the eggs. Whisk in 1 cup of the hot milk. Pour the egg mixture into the saucepan and bring to a simmer, whisking constantly. Pour the pudding into a medium heatproof bowl and let stand, stirring, until slightly cooled, about 10 minutes. Remove the vanilla bean, scraping the seeds from each half into the pudding; stir to incorporate. Rinse the vanilla bean and save for another use.
  • Open the can of chilled coconut milk and, without stirring it, spoon off 1/2 cup of the thick cream that has risen to the top; save the remaining coconut milk for another use. Stir the coconut cream into the pudding until thoroughly incorporated. Spoon the pudding into six 1/2 cup ramekins, cups or glasses. Refrigerate overnight; if desired, cover with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming.

VANILLA CINNAMON TAPIOCA PUDDING RECIPE - (4.5/5)



Vanilla Cinnamon Tapioca Pudding Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by á-39535

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup large pearl tapioca
3 cups whole milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
3 whole cinnamon sticks or ground cinnamon to taste
2 egg yolks
1/2 cup whipping cream
1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons sugar, divided
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Soak tapioca pearls in 2 cups cold water for at least 2 hours. Drain, but do not rinse. Bring milk, salt, and cinnamon sticks (or ground cinnamon to taste) to a gentle boil in a medium, heavy bottomed sauce pan. Reduce heat and add tapioca pearls. Cook, stirring constantly, over medium heat until tapioca pearls are translucent and milk has thickened into a custard. This may take anywhere from half an hour to an hour, depending on the type of tapioca you are using. Separate eggs. In a medium bowl, whisk together yolks and 1/2 cup of sugar. In a different, medium bowl, whisk whipping cream and add remaining 3 tablespoons of sugar 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking in between additions. Beat until fairly stiff. Temper egg yolks: when tapioca has thickened, slowly pour a thin stream of custard into egg yolks, whisking yolks vigorously at the same time. Continuing pouring custard and whisking until you have poured about a cup of custard into yolks. Then, still whisking, pour the yolks and custard back into the main custard pot. Continue to cook pudding for about ten minutes, stirring frequently. When pudding is done cooking, remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Then, gently fold whipped cream until fully incorporated. Pour into serving dish and refrigerate until serving time. Garnish with cinnamon and sugar.

VANILLA TAPIOCA PUDDING



Vanilla Tapioca Pudding image

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 cups organic milk, divided
1/3 cup small pearl tapioca
2 extra-large egg yolks, lightly beaten
1/4 teaspoon fine-grain sea salt
1/3 cup sugar
1 vanilla bean, split along the length (or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract)

Steps:

  • Pour 3/4 cup of the milk into a medium-sized, thick-bottomed pot. Add the tapioca and soak for 60 minutes. Whisk in the egg yolks, salt, sugar, and the remaining milk. Scrape the vanilla bean along its length with a knife and add that bean "paste" along with the bean itself to the pot (if you are using vanilla extract in place of the vanilla bean stir it in at the very end, after the pudding is completely cooked).
  • Over medium heat slowly bring the mixture just barely to a boil, stirring all along - this should take about 15 minutes. Reduce the heat and let the mixture fall to a simmer - you keep it here until the tapioca is fully cooked, another 20 minutes or so. Keep in mind this time can be significantly longer (or shorter). The tapioca will tell you when it is ready if you watch carefully. The tapioca beads will swell up and become almost entirely translucent. The custardy part of pudding will thicken dramatically as well - keep tasting and assessing at this stage. It is even more critical to keep stirring at this point avoid dreaded scorching. Remove from heat and let cool a bit. This tapioca tastes its best when served warm, but is still delicious cold as well.
