Introduction

This tutorial will guide you through the process of making a quick and delicious pudim, a traditional Brazilian dessert that is similar to flan. By following these simple steps, you'll be able to prepare this treat in no time, impressing your family and friends with your culinary skills.

Step 1: Gather Your Ingredients

Before you start, ensure you have all the necessary ingredients on hand:

• 1 can of sweetened condensed milk
• 2 cups of milk
• 3 eggs
• 1 cup of sugar (for the caramel)
• 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract (optional)

Step 2: Prepare the Caramel

Creating the caramel is a key step in making pudim.

1. Melt the Sugar:

   • In a medium saucepan, add 1 cup of sugar.
   • Heat over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until the sugar melts and turns a golden brown color.

2. Coat the Mold:

   • Once the sugar is melted, quickly pour the caramel into a round mold, tilting to coat the bottom evenly.
   • Be careful, as the caramel will be extremely hot.

Step 3: Blend the Pudim Mixture

Now, prepare the creamy filling.

1. Combine Ingredients:

   • In a blender, add:
     • 1 can of sweetened condensed milk
     • 2 cups of milk
     • 3 eggs
     • 1 tablespoon of vanilla extract (optional)

2. Blend:

   • Blend the mixture until smooth and well combined.

Step 4: Pour Mixture into the Mold

Once your mixture is ready, it’s time to transfer it.

• Carefully pour the blended mixture over the caramel in the mold.

Step 5: Bake the Pudim

Baking will give your pudim its perfect texture.

1. Prepare a Water Bath:

   • Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
   • Place the mold with the pudim mixture into a larger baking dish.
   • Fill the outer dish with water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the pudim mold.

2. Bake:

   • Bake in the preheated oven for about 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 6: Cool and Unmold

After baking, let your pudim set and cool.

1. Cool Down:

   • Remove the mold from the water bath and let it cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
   • After cooling, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.

2. Unmold:

   • To unmold, run a knife around the edges of the pudim.
   • Invert the mold onto a serving plate, allowing the caramel to drizzle over the pudim.
