Ingredients used in JIGGLY STRAWBERRY MILK PUDDING BITES
Strawberry puree-
Ripe strawberries take center stage, transforming into a silky puree. Their vibrant sweetness not only colors our bites but introduces a burst of fruity joy, making each spoonful a celebration. To make the puree, blend fresh or frozen strawberries until smooth. You’ll use this in the pudding mixture.
Milk
Milk is the primary ingredient and the star of milk pudding bites. It provides the base and the creamy texture to the dessert. The fat content in the milk contributes to the richness of the pudding. Whole milk or full-fat milk is often preferred for a creamier result, although variations can be made with low-fat milk for a lighter version.
Sugar
Sugar sweetens the pudding, balancing the natural dairy flavors. It dissolves in the milk during cooking, creating a smooth, sweet mixture. The amount of sugar added can be adjusted based on personal preference, but it’s crucial for enhancing the overall taste of the dessert.
Cornflour
Cornflour acts as a thickening agent in milk pudding bites. When mixed with cold liquid and then heated, it thickens the mixture, giving the pudding its smooth and silky consistency. Cornflour helps the pudding set properly, transforming the liquid ingredients into a soft yet firm texture. It’s essential for achieving the perfect pudding consistency.
Desiccated coconut
In this context, desiccated coconut is used to coat the strawberry milk pudding bites. After the pudding is set and cut into bite-sized pieces, these pieces are often coated with a thin layer of desiccated coconut. This serves both a functional and aesthetic purpose. Functionally, the desiccated coconut prevents the pudding pieces from sticking together. Aesthetically, it adds a crunchiness to the outer layer, enhancing the overall mouthfeel and presentation of the dessert.
EQUIPMENT YOU NEED FOR THE JIGGLY STRAWBERRY MILK PUDDING BITES
This recipe doesn’t require a lot of equipment. Measuring Cups and Measuring Spoons are an integral part of any baker’s kitchen, and it’s very important to measure ingredients with precision.
A heavy-bottom saucepan and a whisk are required to combine everything together. A spatula is my favorite kitchen piece of equipment.
You also need an induction or a heat source to heat the mixture.
For the mold to set the pudding, I have used a loaf pan; you can use any shaped baking pan to set the pudding.
TIPS TO KEEP IN MIND WHILE JIGGLY STRAWBERRY MILK PUDDING BITES
- Full-fat milk will give better texture and flavor, so I prefer using that.
- Remove the mixture as soon as it starts to thicken, or else it will become lumpy.
- Make sure you are continuously whisking the mixture to ensure there are no lumps.
- Patience is key when making strawberry milk pudding bites. Allow sufficient time for the pudding to set in the refrigerator. This usually takes 4–5 hours. A well-set pudding ensures a smooth and consistent texture.
- Use a sharp, clean knife to cut the cubes equally.
- Cook the pudding mixture over medium heat. Avoid high heat to prevent scorching or curdling. Stir continuously to prevent the mixture from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
