Recipe #336: Purin

Ahh...purin is a favorite Japanese snack that comes in these fun shaped little cups. But when you live in the states and can't get those, you have to settle for the DIY box!

I guess you might say it is similar to flan, but it is a much lighter consistency then the flan i have eaten!
Of course you need the box so this is kind of a hard recipe to make... and then you also need a brother who reads Japanese to tell you how to make it!

It is really easy. Just mix the package with 400ml milk, and stir over heat until dissolved. pour into 4 little bowls. Then freeze for an hour. Donnie didn't believe me on that one, but I am pretty sure that is what you are supposed to do...it sat in the fridge for an hour and did nothing! (I actually accidentally left it in the freezer overnight, but when it thawed it was the right consistency, so it was fine!)

just before serving, mix a Tbsp of water with the caramel packet and pour over each pudding.


Alex loved it so much he went into the fridge yesterday and pulled out the last one to eat! Crazy kid. He got to eat it...after sharing a couple bites with me of course! :)
