King Pudding Kit - tasting a giant pudding flan - Whatcha Eating #213

Greetings, my lovelies! Hi it's Emmy! Welcome back to another "Watcha Eating?" Today I have something...Large for you -- king-sized to be exact. And this is a king pudding. And it's a giant pudding kit from Japan. So in Japan you can buy little individual cups of premade pudding.

And they come in like a little set of three. And they're about the same size as the instant Jell-o that you can find here in the US. It's much more like a flan or an egg custard: it has a little bit of a caramel topping; and you invert it out of the cup and then you eat it that way -- just like you would eat flan. So let's go in the kitchen and I'll show you how I put this together and then we'll come back to invert it onto a plate.

Oh! And if you like these kinds of videos don't forget to subscribe for more makin' and eatin'. All right! Let's get started! So this is what comes inside the kit: we have instructions; the pudding mixture; and some caramel. So, before we start, we want to wash out our pail. All right.

To our saucepan we're going to add 1.9 Litres of whole milk. Next, we're going to add our pudding mixture. And give that a good stir. Next, we're going to place everything on the stovetop, and then heat it up until just about steaming -- and all of the pudding mixture is dissolved into the milk.

So turn off the heat at this point and let the mixture cool a little bit before you pour it into the bucket. (Talking to son:) How's it smell? (Son): Mmm...Pretty good! And refrigerate for at least ten hours. Okay! We are back! And this is the Giant King Pudding. So let's see what it looks like inside.

Oh look at it jiggle already! Use a butter knife... And go along the edge -- make sure you stay along the side because you don't want to mar your beautiful pudding; and we're going to put our plate on; say a Hail Mary; quickly invert it; Oo! Did you hear that? I do believe our pudding has just released. All right! Here we go! There it is! And it's AMAZING! Look at that! Oh my gosh! Here's the good side. And look at it jiggle! So now that we've released it out of the container, we're going to top it with our little caramel sauce.

Look at that! It's so luscious and beautiful! Woah! There it goes! So in the time that I was taking pictures of my beautiful flan... This happened. [Laughs.] I think it'll still taste good, but it's not nearly as lovely as it once was. I think this would be the perfect thing to serve at a party because no matter how much you love custard or flan this is way too much for one person.

But, let's give it a taste. We'll take a bite with the syrup -- and give it a taste! Itadakimasu! MM! Wow! That syrup is really sweet, and tastes like caramel. Let's try a bite with less caramel on it. Mmm.

And it tastes like the custard pudding that I remember in Japan: pretty light on the egg flavour; mostly kind of milk and sweet; The syrup is, not surprisingly, very sweet; and tastes a lot like brown sugar. It has a little bit of a caramel flavour to it. But yeah! It's good! Really, really smooth, kind of Jell-o-y texture; softer than Jell-o, but, yeah, delicious! I actually ordered this online from my friends Marimo Marshmallow. I should put their information down in the description bar if you're interested in buying one for yourself.

Let me know in the comments below if you've ever had pudding before, or if you have some great recipe for homemade flan: I would love to make it from scratch one day... And yeah! I hope you guys enjoyed that; I hope you guys learned something; Don't forget to follow, like, and subscribe! And i shall see you in my next video! Toodaloo! Take care! BYEEEEEE!!!! And this is a little....Another Umai kind of candy. It looks like it might be the corn potage..
