Dad’s (Pete) Pudding
Dad’s Pudding was a favorite of us kids while growing up he always made it rich and thick, and this is what he used :
what you need is a double boiler pot, milk, salt, sugar, eggs, cornstarch as a thickener. those are the basic ingredients, there are different ways to make different puddings. depending what flavor you want just add either cocoa, vanilla, or pistachio for example
depending on the size of your boiler, you can make 2, 4, 6 cups of milk to feed an entire family. depending on what you want to make.
Recipe
I put in for four cups of milk:
4 cups of milk add 2 1/2 cup sugar, 4 eggs, pinch of salt, stir, add whatever flavor you want for example 2 cap fulls of vanilla for vanilla pudding or 1/2 cup of Hershey’s cocoa taste for constancy, after desired taste stir in 1/2 cornstarch to thicken. don’t forget to stir over low heat
For vanilla, add a cap full of vanilla (yes extract will work as well), before you add in the cornstarch, keep stirring, until thicken, let set, taste, (yes ya gotta taste it for test right texture) if it need more sugar, add to taste. gently stir, if needed to thicken more, add more cornstarch.
For chocolate, add Hershey’s Cocoa instead of vanilla, same as above.
if you want pistachios use crushed pistachios instead or pistachio pudding mix for better taste.
if you want 6 cups of milk, put in 4 cups of sugar, 6 eggs, salt, cornstarch to thicken.
Mom’s (Cedelia’s) Fresh Baked Bread
My mom used to bake bread and cinnamon rolls for us kids throughout the years. We enjoyed mom’s fresh baked bread fresh out of the oven. And the cinnamon rolls? They were so good that they were gone within hours.
To make cinnamon rolls make the dough as listed below. Just double the recipe. let rise once as instructed. Then take one “loaf”, because you will have 3 loaves instead of 4, and sprinkle flour on the cutting board then roll out the dough with a rolling pin. Get it flat as a pancake spreading over the countertop or cutting board if you have one. sprinkle more flour on top, that way the dough won’t be as sticky. Butter the dough, then sprinkle brown sugar on top evenly spread out. Optional add in some raisins, then roll the mixture and cut roll in half an inch. place rolls in buttered pan, cover with towel, and finally let rise for an half an hour, then put in oven at 360 degrees for an half an hour. then put rolls into the cookie sheet by flipping the pan unto the cookie sheet, let cool, enjoy!
