My dear friends, I'm not a skilled chef, but I like to prepare this type of dessert in my free time. When I noticed this contest, I was motivated to prepare it and share my recipe with other Steemians. So, without further delay, let's start to prepare the caramel pudding, which was taught by our friend @m-fdo.

Detailed Recipe (Step by step)

Step 1

First, I added about 40g of sugar to a pan and added water to cover the sugar. Then, I kept it on low heat and stirred the sugar well until it dissolved. On a low flame, I heated it until the sugar turned golden brown. I was very careful to heat it on a low flame; if not, the caramel might have a bitter taste.

When the caramel became golden brown, I poured the hot caramel into a bowl that I had prepared earlier. Then I spread the caramel on every side of the bowl and kept it aside to cool.

Step 2.

To make the pudding mixture, first, I poured the fresh milk into a bowl. Then mix the fresh milk and the sugar well to enhance the sweetness of the pudding.

Then, I broke four eggs one by one into separate bowls to make sure none were spoiled. After beating the eggs for a few minutes, I mixed them with the fresh milk and stirred well. Finally, I added the vanilla and shredded nutmeg. The nutmeg helped to reduce the cholesterol in the eggs, and the vanilla helped to get the nice aroma.

Step 3

Then I poured the mixture into a caramel-lined bowl and covered it with a piece of aluminum foil. Add the water to a pressure cooker and set a metal stand inside. Next, put the caramel pudding in the pressure cooker.

Cooked it over medium heat with the lid closed. Then switched off the stove when heard the two whistles but left it in the cooker for another fifteen minutes. Finally, I took the caramel pudding out of the pressure cooker and allowed it to cool for fifteen to twenty minutes.

Step 4

Next, refrigerate the caramel pudding for about 2 hours to set. Before removing it, I kept it for about 10 minutes at room temperature. Finally, I turned the caramel pudding down onto a plate. My pudding was very yummy, soft, and creamy. Now it is ready to be served.

Did you enjoy the taste of the caramel pudding you made? Or did you give it to someone else? Can you describe it?

Usually, when I prepare something special, I never enjoy it alone. At least, I share them with my neighbor friends. This time, as my son and daughter-in-law had come to stay with us, I shared it with them and my husband. They praised my yummy caramel pudding. My son claimed that he would be unaware of Ammi's exceptional talent for making such a delicious dessert. I was very proud when everyone admired my tasty pudding. Thank you, @m-fdo, for teaching us to make such a tasty pudding.

Explain the specialty of caramel pudding.

Caramel pudding is special because of its soft, creamy, and beautiful golden top. It has a milky taste because of fresh milk and eggs. Vanilla enhances its taste and aroma. Because of the caramel, it has a sweet taste. Both children and adults like to eat them because of their taste. It is very easy to make if we correctly make the caramel. It is a perfect treat for ceremonies and family gatherings. Infants are very fond of it because of its milky taste. Therefore, I prefer to constantly prepare it.
