Oh My God!! Cornstarch pudding!! Raised by my paternal grandmother, Gram, she'd make this ALL THE TIME growing up. Friends and classmates thought it was disgusting because it wasn't name brand. Our home smelled delicious. It was like vanilla custard. You gave me a wonderful reminder of something i grew up with. Thank you.
One of my first memories of cooking is standing on a chair pulled up to the stove and stirring pudding with a wooden spoon. My mom would serve vanilla pudding hot, sprinkled with fresh grated coconut or chocolate pudding hot with fresh sliced bananas. Now as an adult one of my favorite comfort foods is making basmati rice pudding with leftover rice and eggs from my farm. It's so wonderful eaten warm right from the stove, with a glorious golden color from the farm eggs. I also love to make pastry cream and put it between layers of cakes especially sponge cakes with whipped cream and fruit.... And sometimes a little Nutella. I've never made cinnamon pudding before but now I am intrigued and will be trying that next.
Growing up in Alabama, Mother just did not make pudding often so I never cultivated a taste for it until adulthood. I have sense come to love rice pudding and a good bread pudding! Yum! Look forward to also making Natilla. Taqueria Del Sol is one of my favorite places in ATL to eat lunch!
I enjoyed the reading here. I love puddings. Especially in a cake kept cold. I like my puddings cold & as layer filling to cakes. I like vanilla with strawberries served with homemade shortbread cake. Fresh whipped cream on top. So delicious.
My mother grew up eating pudding hot off the stove with a pat of butter, and she served it that way (and cold) to me and my brother. I introduced it to my husband, who now prefers it hot. My sons grew up eating it both ways. What none of us will eat is instant or canned, including the little individual lunch containers. 🤢
Our grandmother always took butterscotch pudding with peanuts on top and often bananas in the bottom. to the family reunions. It always went quickly. Her great nieces were just talking about it at the reunion last weekend. She made it just for us, too.

I think about pudding a lot. It was one of the first things I learned to cook as a Girl Guide.
