Even though we are omnivorous (I’m a lapsed vegan) I’ve been making more and more vegan recipes these days. This recipe is perfect! Guess what’s for dessert this Friday night!

Yeah, if it was grainy, then it could be you didn’t cook it long enough. I had that problem. I’ve never even bought coconut oil, it sounds interesting.

Oohh, I see . . . Maybe I didn’t cook the agar long enough also? I see now that agar is something that I need to experiment a bit with before I get the hang of it. KoJel is much easier to work with!
And I so agree about coconut milk–I love it. And have you ever used coconut oil–amazing flavor and adds great texture to baked goods because it is hard at room temperature. It is just expensive, so I can’t use so freely.

Hi Laura, I hope that’s the trick I like the taste of coconut milk in desserts (and in general). The one problem I’ve had with agar is it gets a grainy texture if you don’t heat it long enough.

I like the way this recipe sounds. It’s funny, I just read a post about chocolate pudding on Shoshana’s blog Couldnt be Pareve, and she also uses coconut milk, but she sets up the pudding with cornstarch.
I just tried using agar for the first time to make a panna cotta and it set up so hard and crumbly. Now, thanks to you, I know that I just used too much agar.

that is such a bright sunny corner, great place to sit and eat pudding. What’s your next pudding recipe going to be?

Lovely ice cream! Coconut cream or milk is something I also use for ice creams, as I don’t make any dairy ice creams (I have an ice cream maker as well)
Btw, regards from Helsinki,Finland.It is around -12 C just now and soooo much snow!

I don’t see why not …. I think this would be hard to mess up
