1. Rinsing and Soaking Tapioca Pearls:
Rinse the tapioca pearls under cold water.
Soak the pearls in a medium saucepan with 1 cup of milk for about 30 minutes.
2. Mixing and Simmering:
Add the remaining milk, salt, and sugar to the saucepan. Mix well.
Gradually heat the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring frequently.
Once simmering, reduce the heat and continue stirring for 10-15 minutes until the mixture thickens and the tapioca pearls become translucent.
3. Tempering with Eggs:
Off the heat, blend a small portion of the tapioca mixture into the beaten eggs to temper them.
Reintroduce the tempered egg mixture back into the main saucepan.
4. Final Touch and Refrigeration:
Stir the combined mixture over medium-low heat for an additional 2-3 minutes to thicken.
Blend in the vanilla extract.
Distribute the pudding into individual dishes or a single large bowl.
Let it sit briefly, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until cool and set.
5. Garnishing and Serving:
Optionally, garnish with ground cinnamon or nutmeg before serving.
Enjoy your delightful homemade tapioca pudding!
