Second Step:
Method:
First place
a fine-mesh sieve over a medium bowl; set aside. In a medium saucepan, off
heat, whisk together sugar, cornstarch, and salt. If making chocolate pudding,
add cocoa powder. Very gradually a few tablespoons at a time whisk in milk,
taking care to dissolve cornstarch. Whisk in egg yolks.
When cook over
medium heat until the first large bubble forms and sputters. Reduce heat to
low; still whisking, cook 1 minute. Remove from heat; immediately pour through
sieve into bowl. Stir butter and vanilla into hot pudding.
Finally place
plastic wrap directly on surface of pudding to prevent skin from forming chill
at least 3 hours and up to 3 days. Before serving, whisk pudding until smooth;
divide among four serving dishes.
