As everyone knows, pudding comes in a box with a 5-letter logo starting w/ the letter ‘J’. Except when you go to your cupboard and there’s no box. Wha- what? No box? Oh man, I’m *not* going to the store, just for pudding. And not just cause gas is $3.50 a gallon.
Wait, wasn’t there a recipe in Everyday Food? Oh wait, I think that was a year ago. Better go dig it out. How hard could it be?
Whisk together sugar, cornstarch and salt. Add milk by a few tablespoons at a time. Stir in egg yolks. Cook over medium heat until one big bubble comes up and the mixture is thickened.
Strain through a mesh strainer. Add butter and vanilla – voila!
