Tapiocca Pudding Recipe (Baked)?

heartstrings — Thu, 26 Mar 2015 12:37:29 GMT

For years I have been looking for a tapioca pudding recipe like the kind they serve in restaurants. It appears to me to be baked as it is not thin or runny at all and holds it shape, and is the best! I have seen it in Greek restaurants in an oblong baking dish so that is why I think it is baked. I have asked several restaurants about the recipe, but of course, they are not willing to share. Somebody out there must know what I mean. THANK YOU!

Are you sure it's not baked RICE pudding you're seeing in the Greek restaurants? That would be my guess.

No, we always order tapioca pudding when we go out to eat. It has a jiggly, firm consistency to it.

Yes, I googled it before but will check again. I've made the stovetop tapioca many times in my life and realize it has to be stirred. Any Greek chefs or waiters/waitresses out there know what I am talking about? It is simple, but the consistency is unlike stovetop tapioca. When it is served, it looks as though it was cut out with a spatula instead of a spoon. It holds it shape to some degree unlike the store bought kind.

Thanks.

This pudding offers you both the satisfying crack of using your spoon to break through a brûlée topping and the sensation of dipping that spoon into fluffy pudding. Tapioca generally isn’t baked, but it is easier than cooking it on top of the stove. And once the pudding is in the oven you can leave it alone, as opposed to the stovetop method, which requires frequent stirring to prevent scorching. The use of pearl tapioca makes for a springy texture, and cinnamon in the topping adds a bit of spice.

3 cups whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
1 cinnamon stick
? cup small pearl tapioca
4 large egg yolks
85 grams granulated sugar (about 1/3 cup)
¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
45 grams Demerara sugar (about 3 tablespoons) (unrefined sugar larger grain)
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon.

Heat oven to 300 degrees
In a medium saucepan, bring the milk, cream and cinnamon stick to a simmer. Whisk in the tapioca. Simmer until the pearls are completely tender, about 20 minutes.
In a large bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, granulated sugar and salt. Whisking constantly, pour in a third of the tapioca mixture. Whisk yolk mixture into the pot of tapioca; simmer over medium-low heat, stirring constantly with a heat-proof spatula, until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 5 minutes.
Transfer pudding to a buttered 1.5-quart gratin dish. Sprinkle the top with Demerara sugar and cinnamon. Bake, uncovered, until the pudding is firm around the edges and jiggly in the center, about 30 minutes. Put under the broiler until top is bubbling and golden, 3 to 5 minutes. (Watch carefully to make sure it doesn’t burn.) Eat warm, or chill and serve cold, removing the cinnamon stick while serving.

Found this on line. Sounds and looks good.

Yes, I will try this. Never had it with the crunchy topping, but the "springy" texture is what I was trying to describe. Springy it is!

Thank you.

My mother used to make Tapioca pudding from the box often. We all loved it, a comfort food!
