You know that jiggly pudding-shaped dessert, usually served on a plate or in a jar? The texture does not really make it a pudding nor a custard. This creates a big confusion between pudding, custard, panna cotta, and sometimes mousse. Let\u2019s find out!<\/span><\/p>\n According to the british definition, a pudding can be both a sweet and savory dish. Sometimes, pudding is actually used as a generic British term for dessert. While American puddings are typically thicker and stodgier than the British\u2019s version of custard.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Definition-wise, it is seen as a variety of culinary preparation using milk or cream and egg yolk to thicken it. The consistency can vary from very thin that you can pour it like a sauce, until thick like pastry cream fillers. It can be baked in a tart or ramekin, and finished with caramelized sugar.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Panna cotta on the other side is way much simpler than custard. As we know, the eggs in custard are thickened and tempered. While for Panna Cotta, you just need to bring your cream to below the point where it starts to simmer, combine with the right amount of gelatin, and then it is chilled. It should result in a silky texture rather than stiff.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nPudding is quite the complicated dessert. <\/span><\/h2>\n
