MY FAVORITE LEMON PUDDING
Steps:
- Whisk the sugar and the cornstarch together in a medium saucepan. Add the milk and whisk until smooth. Add the egg yolks, zest, and salt and cook, stirring frequently at first and constantly towards the end, over medium heat until thickened enough to thickly coat the back of a spoon.
- Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the lemon juice and butter. Pour through a strainer into a large serving bowl or 4 individual serving dishes.
- Let cool to room temperature. Chill, loosely covered, for at least 2 hours and up to 3 days, or until set and thoroughly chilled. Serve chilled.
TAPIOCA PUDDING
Steps:
- Place tapioca in a medium mixing bowl along with the water, cover, and let stand overnight.
- Drain water from tapioca. Place the tapioca into a slow cooker along with the milk, heavy cream, and salt. Cook on high for 2 hours, stirring occasionally.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the egg yolk and sugar. Temper small amounts of the tapioca into the egg mixture until you have added at least 1 cup. Then add this back into the remaining tapioca in the slow cooker. Add the lemon zest and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 15 minutes, stirring at least once. Transfer the pudding to a bowl and cover the surface with plastic wrap. Allow to cool at room temperature for 1 hour and then place in the refrigerator until thoroughly chilled.

LEMONY TAPIOCA PUDDING
I was watching one of my favorite Food TV shows, "Good Eats", one night. Alton Brown was making tapioca pudding. Well, I knew that my wife LOVES tapioca pudding so I decided to whip up a batch. She thought it was GREAT. There were a couple of things that I wanted to change about it. First, while the fat content was about right, the sugar was low. Also there was no vanilla. I fixed that part of it, yet one problem remained. The problem is not in the recipe but the scarcity of one ingredient. That ingredient was pearl tapioca. We have some great grocery stores here, but finding pearl tapioca was difficult. I then took it upon myself to come up with the new version of my recipe.

Tips:
- Use fresh lemon zest: Fresh lemon zest adds a bright, citrusy flavor to the pudding. If you don't have fresh lemon zest, you can use 1 teaspoon of dried lemon zest.
- Don't overcook the tapioca pearls: Tapioca pearls should be cooked until they are translucent and soft, but still have a slight bite to them. If you overcook them, they will become mushy.
- Let the pudding cool completely before serving: This will allow the pudding to set and thicken properly.
- Garnish the pudding with fresh fruit: Fresh fruit, such as berries, citrus segments, or bananas, adds a pop of color and flavor to the pudding.
